Ephesians 1:7

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

• Redemption
• Forgiveness
• Grace
• Sin
• Jesus

There is a reality called forgiveness. Again, there is another reality called redemption. A person may be forgiven for a crime but may not be redeemed to the former privileges they enjoyed. It is of the utmost importance to understand what the grace of our Lord Jesus manifested in His death, burial, and resurrection has done for us. It is through understanding what has been received that we may do and be what God has ordained for us.
Our verse today states that we have been redeemed through the blood of Jesus. This means that every access and privilege humans lost with the fall of Adam has been reinstated for those who come to the Father through the blood. The second thing to note is that the forgiveness of God is available, and this precedes redemption.
Therefore, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us to eject us from our ways of trespass onto the highway of life and glory. Our sins (past, present, and future) have all been atoned for. We have also been redeemed and not only forgiven. This is all possible because of the grace of God.
We have been restored to the fullness of life and the privilege of sonship again because of the blood of Jesus. Hallelujah!

  Revelation 5:9

  And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.
