We are redeemed from the bondage and curse of our sin in Christ. The word redeemed means to pay a price to set someone free. Christ redeems believers at the cross. The only way we can be redeemed from condemnation is believing on the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:30-31).
We are redeemed from the curse of the law in Christ. The word curse is a covenant term. It means to be cut off from the blessings of God because of sin. Jesus died at the cross, "having become a curse for us." He died in your place, as your substitute. Jesus paid it all. As a believer, see Christ dying on the cross to take away the curse of your sin.
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who hangs upon a tree'), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith" (Galatians 3:13-14).
We are redeemed "that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles." Jesus fulfilled the covenant God made with Abraham to be a blessing to all nations (Genesis 12:1-3). God blessed Abraham in all things (Genesis 24:1). Believers are blessed in all things,because they are redeemed in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). The blessing of Abraham is ours by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
