How does Christ deliver us from bondage?

Christ’s deliverance of His people from bondage is a central theme of the gospel. In the sermon, it is highlighted that through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus has triumphed over all our enemies, including sin and the devil. His sacrificial death was necessary to satisfy the justice of God against our sins, thus freeing us from the bondage we experienced under sin’s dominion. The application of this deliverance is through the work of the Holy Spirit, who effectively takes the gospel and brings it into the hearts of the elect, enabling them to believe and receive the salvation that Christ has accomplished. This liberation transforms us from being slaves to sin into children of God, demonstrating the fullness of His grace and mercy.
