The Mighty Cost Of Our Freedom

“The freedom of Christ’s people has been procured, like all other freedom, at a mighty cost and by a mighty sacrifice. Great was the bondage in which they were naturally held, and great was the price necessary to be paid to set them free. Mighty was the enemy who claimed them as his captives, and it needed mighty power to release them out of his hands.

“But, blessed be God, there was grace enough, and power enough ready in Jesus Christ. He provided to the uttermost everything ...

that was required to set His people free. The price that Christ paid for His people was nothing less than His own life-blood.”

~ J.C. Ryle
