Jesus Christ: the redeemer of the world

greetings to all great parishioners and apostles of the @steemchurch. Today I will be sharing with us another topic titled Jesus Christ the redeemer of the world.

The Book of Genesis is a foundational book for all of mankind, and for every generation, for in it we are told of the origins of man, the fall of man and the subsequent entrance of death and suffering into this world, and what God would do to restore man to his original postion at creation; to the 'Image of God'. For this God would send a Redeemer, one who would restore man back to the image and presence of God. Jesus is 'Christ our Redeemer' the one spoken of in Genesis whom God promised He would send to redeem us and set us free from the bondage of sin and death.Our first parents, Adam and Eve, fell into temptation, abused the freedom God created them with, and rebelled against God in disobedience. This brought the curse of death upon them and all their descendants. All people are conceived and born spiritually blind, dead, and estranged from God. 

We call this original sin because it is inherited and passed down from the very first people to all people in the world. This is why all people are in need of Christ.Galatians 3:13-14 “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”2 Corinthians 8:9 “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”

This Scripture shows us one of the reasons why Jesus came into the world. He was hanged on the Cross because He came to bear our curse, and to become a blessing to us that we might be brought into the blessing of Abraham. Notice that Galatians 3:14 doesn’t say ‘blessings’ but ‘blessing’. The blessing is an empowerment that produces numerous blessings. He came to redeem us from the curse of the law, and to empower us with the blessing of Abraham. He came that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

The curse of the Law is the manifestation of many things which are itemized in Deuteronomy 28:15-68. Primarily, the curse of the Law is spiritual death manifesting itself in many ugly things; it is sin and all its consequences; it is rebellion expressed in all the consequences of sin.Jesus became a curse on the Cross of Calvary to redeem us from the curse of the Law. The man in Christ has been redeemed from sin and all its consequences. Romans 6:14 tells us that sin shall no longer have dominion over us, for we are not under the Law but under grace. 

We have emancipation from all the effects of sin or rebellion against God.Beloved, not only has Christ redeemed you from the dominion of sin, He also has redeemed you from all the consequences of sin. This calls for rejoicing! We are no longer in bondage to sin, nor to Satan, nor to the world. 

You don’t have to succumb to the pressure of sin and of temptations any more. You don’t have to suffer the pressure of sicknesses and diseases, and of poverty again. You have been given the Name of Jesus with which to cast out devils. You can dictate the pace of happenings in your life now that you are in Christ. You have dominion over life’s situations in the Name of Jesus Christ. Go ahead and take your place in Christ.

Ephesians 2:11-15.
11
Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)—
12
remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.
13
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
14
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,
15
by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,

I know that Jesus Christ was the firstborn spirit child of God the Father; that he is the Only Begotten Son of God in the flesh; that, as the scriptures teach, in the spirit world before this earth was created he sponsored the Father’s plan for the mortality, the death, the resurrection,and the eternal life of men; that, commissioned of the Father, he was the creator of this earth; the Jehovah of the Old Testament, “the God of Adam and of Noah, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of Israel, the God at whose instance the prophets of the ages have spoken, the God of all nations, and [that] He shall yet reign on earth as King of kings and Lord of lords.”
