Description
The Bible's images of ransom, redemption, and forgiveness are deeply intertwined with the story of Jesus' death on the cross. But what do these concepts really mean? In "Ransomed, Redeemed, and Forgiven", David McIlroy explores how power, money, and sin can trap us, leaving us in desperate need of a redeemer. Through practical examples from his experience as a banking lawyer and from history, McIlroy shows how the ideas of ransom, redemption, and forgiveness were understood by the first hearers of the gospel. He reveals how these concepts link to kidnapping, slavery, and debt, and how they can enrich our worship and inspire us to share the transformative power of salvation. By deepening your understanding of Jesus' death and resurrection, this book aims to help you grasp the full significance of the cross and its ongoing impact on our lives.
