Redeemer

     God is our redeemer.  To understand what a a redeemer is you have to know what redeem means.  Dictionary.com says, "to buy or pay off; clear by payment:"  So how is God our redeemer?  Well Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."  We have a debt in sin.  From the time we were born till the time we are saved that debt keeps piling up, higher, and higher.  And we can do nothing about it.  There is no payment you can pay, no labor or work you can do, or ANYTHING.  You cannot pay of this debt.  The ONLY way you can, is by being redeemed by Jesus Christ.  He redeemed us from ALL of our sins when He was nailed on the cross.  And now and FOREVER more you can be forgiven for your sins.  No matter what you do or did.  God can and will forgive you of your sins.  That is how God is our Redeemer.
