"Purchased for Purpose!"
The ransom which Christ Jesus paid for my soul was the most important act of Love that HE displayed while hanging on a cross between two thieves 2000 years ago at Calvary.
Nothing could stop HIM from completing this mission which God had assigned HIM, and yet there are many who are unwilling to Accept and Believe what the Apostle Paul was proclaiming concerning Christ and the Law's requirement for Redemption.
Redeemed from the curse associated with its judgement against my transgression, a condemnation too great for me to bear, Christ took upon HIMself my iniquity, becoming that atoning sacrifice necessary for my Forgiveness, and as a ransom for all who will by Faith acknowledge HIM as Savior.
That day Jesus was dedicated to being Obedient to HIS heavenly father, not pitching a plea for repentance, but rather sought Forgiveness for those who crucified HIM, an example which must be imitated.
HE purchased my Freedom with HIS Precious Blood, in LOVE HE gave HIS Life for mine, a treasure worth billions and even more, yet a ransom never too steep or impossible for HIM to pay for my soul.
Purposed to witness of HIS Love, commissioned by HIS WORD to advance the message of God's Kingdom and baptized with HIS Holy Spirit of Power, is the destiny which 1st century martyrs like Peter, James and Stephen accepted and fulfilled in their lives.
I am PURPOSED because Christ PURCHASED my soul, challenging me to fulfill my destiny, appointed by HIS WORD to accomplish even greater exploits, anointed to bear fruit ready for that Great and Glorious Day, when a harvest of souls is coming upon the earth.
