THE PAIN THAT BROUGHT OUR JOY PART 1

Who has ever thought that redemption is free of Charge?
Or who has ever thought that our enemy the devil would watch us enjoy the riches of the Kingdom of God free of charge?

Oh Yes! Redemption is free because someone paid the price and we have the legal right to the riches of the Kingdom of God because of the same price that was paid.

What was the Price?  The price was the blood of Jesus which was by the death of Jesus, because there is no forgiveness of sin without the shedding of blood Hebrews 9:22

So the death of Jesus was the price tag on our redemption!

Another question arises, how come Jesus can pay the Price? Was He not God? Did he have to pay the Price? Yes Jesus was God John 10:30 but He bore our sins as a man and not as God, all the miracles He performed, he performed them as man and that was why He had to fast to be endued with power Luke 4:1, Acts 1:8.
And that explains why Jesus lived a life of godliness and was announced to be the son of God in godliness as in 1Tim 3:16
" 1Ti 3:16And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." (KJV)
Everything Jesus did in the flesh, godliness was the order.
Jesus was able to carry the sins because He lived a life of Godliness and also His birth and conception was of the Holy Ghost making Him to carry our sins, because he that is with sin has no power to cleanse us of sin that was why He was made of the origin of the Holy Ghost through His conception because he that is born of a man has sin. So Jesus' origin permitted Him to carry our sins, but that was not all, He still had to work out his own "salvation" by living a life of Godliness and subjecting 100% to the Holy Ghost.
Thanks and God bless you, I know you enjoyed the post, stay tuned for the next post, "Was the Cross actually painful? "
