price - Biblical Teaching

Redemption can be thought of like a coupon. Someone else already paid for the item & gave us the coupon. Then we give that coupon to the store in exchange for the item. Jesus paid the price for our sins & gave a coupon to every person on earth. But to receive the salvation He purchased for us we have to offer God His blood on behalf of our specific sins. Jesus buys us back even if we are completely used up, damaged, destroyed, & broken. Then He makes us whole, complete, & righteous before He gives us back to God. Wouldn’t it be a shame not to exchange that coupon?

1 Samuel 16:1-13

God rejected Saul as king and told Samuel to anoint one of Jesse’s sons to be his replacement. The one Samuel thought looked good was not the one God chose and He explained that we may look at the outward appearance of a person, but He looks at the heart.
First we go through the story of God’s selection, then we read a lot of verses about how God knows and cares about our hearts more than anything else and what’s on the inside is what should matter to us too. We need to be focusing on actually being good people instead of just appearing to be.
