HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU'VE BEEN REDEEMED?!?
Have you been Redeemed?

Webster's Dictionary (1864) defines REDEMPTION as:
The act of procuring the deliverance of persons or things from the possession of captors by the payment of an equivalent.

Naw Bro Hancock...its a PREPAID Card..but it has to be RELOADED daily through studying, prayer, you know, a relationship WITH God and denying SELF. By allowing God's will to be done and God to order our steps. Sometime's, there's a zero or negative balance on some of our Salvation Cards...lol...don't get me started.

I am glad that you said that because I am tired of hearing people say and think since christ died for our sins,,we have a SIN FREE CARD

Bro Hancok~ One must have a relationship with God and continue that relationship. Are we perfect? By no means, however, that doesn't mean we can WILLFULLY /KNOWINGLY commit sins and expect to receive eternal life JUST because Christ shed his blood for our salvation. We have a price to pay too!

Excellent,,make a person think and repent,,BUT we are back to going through the scripture format and have a realtionship..BUT one goes back into what they were supposed to be redeemed from...are they still redeemed???

Be Blessed.
