Jesus Is My Savior and Redeemer | David Pratt

07-13-25

Jesus is our savior and redeemer. Because Jesus has saved us from our sins, we can live a changed life. We can walk in the newness of life. Thayer’s Greek Lexicon defines newness of life as “ the new state (of moral life) in which the Holy Spirit places us, Romans 7:6

When we think of superheroes we think of someone that intervenes in life threatening situations and rescues someone from imminent peril, often at great risk to themselves. Christianity is much the same. Jesus intervenes in the lives of His people rescuing them and bringing them into a relationship with God the Father so that they can fulfill His purpose and plans. To understand Jesus’ role as Savior, we must understand our own desperate situation. All of humanity has sinned against God, rebelling, and living our lives, independent, from the God who is the source of life. Jesus saves us from the penalty of sin, redeems us out of Satan’s power and restores us to God’s original purpose and plan. We must embrace our new identity as sons and daughters of God who have been forgiven of their sins, changed by His power to live as new creations.

Definition: Save: to keep safe and sound, to rescue from danger or destruction, one (from injury or peril) to save a suffering one (from perishing), i.e. one suffering from disease, to make well, heal, restore to health
