- The rich can pay a ransom for their lives,
but the poor won’t even get threatened. - For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.
- For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.
- For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
- I will shout for joy and sing your praises,
for you have ransomed me. - That is why he is the one who mediates a new covenant between God and people, so that all who are called can receive the eternal inheritance God has promised them. For Christ died to set them free from the penalty of the sins they had committed under that first covenant.
And Jesus said to him, “Go, for your faith has healed you.” Instantly the man could see, and he followed Jesus down the road. Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see.Next verse!With image
