You Were Bought With a Price

What was the price of your redemption?

In 1 Peter 1:18–25, Peter reminds believers that they were not redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the spotless Lamb of God.

Our salvation was not purchased by our good works, family heritage, or personal accomplishments. It came through the sacrifice of Christ, who gave Himself so that we could be set free from our former way of life.

Through Him, we have been born again—not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and enduring Word of God.

Because we have been redeemed by such a precious Savior, our lives should reflect the new life we have received.

Are we living like people who understand what it cost Christ to redeem us?
