TEACH THEM TO OBEY

LESSON FOUR; REDEMPTION GAVE ME ETERNAL LIFE

The sin of Adam brought us under the dominion of the devil, after separating us spiritually from God. Through this sin, we also became the property of the devil and inherited the sinful nature. When Jesus died, he shed his blood to pay the price for our sins and to be purchased back to God. That is redemption. Just as Adam’s sin gave us the sinful nature of Satan, the sacrifice of Christ gave us God’s life or Eternal Life.
