He saved us from sin.

He saved us from sin.

“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21

The name Jesus means Saviour in the Greek translation. In the Hebrew, Jesus means Jehovah is Saviour. That is why to get born again, according to Romans 10:9, you would have to confess that Jesus is Lord.

The next thing we see in our opening scripture is the first reason why Jesus came; He came to save us from our sins. There is no way any man can be saved from sin apart from Jesus. Jesus is our deliverer from sin and the power of sin. He is our redeemer. He redeemed us by the price He paid in His death, and by the shedding of His sinless blood, our sins were remitted.

1 John 3:4-5 say, “Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.”

Until Jesus came, no man was qualified to pay the price to take away sin. The Bible says in Psalm 49:7-8(AMP), “None of them can by any means redeem [either himself or] his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him-- For the ransom of a life is too costly, and [the price one can pay] can never suffice” It is only the blood of Jesus Christ that can redeem man. Ephesians 1:7 says, “In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;”

Prayer.
Dear Father, I thank you because I know, according to the scriptures, that I have been completely delivered from sin and the power of sin has been broken from my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

For further study, read:
Romans 5:8-10; 1 John 1:9; Revelations 1:5.
