Salvation is one of the greatest gifts any being can receive in their lifetime. Jesus Christ offered it to us freely and wholeheartedly. It was the redeeming sacrifice on the cross that has promised us an eternal life and a life free of bondage, adversity, distress and great power to overcome the trials and tribulations of the world through the grace of God.
We as believers are redeemed from the curse of the law and its only by the blood of Christ shed on the cross.
