What does 'eternal redemption' mean in Hebrews 9:12?

Answered in 1 source

'Eternal redemption' means that the salvation obtained through Christ's sacrifice is everlasting and cannot be lost.

'Eternal redemption' refers to the lasting nature of the salvation accomplished by Christ. In Hebrews 9:12, the term emphasizes that the redemption He secured is not temporary or subject to conditions, but rather a permanent state. This concept reassures believers that once redeemed, they cannot be re-enslaved by sin or loss of salvation. The believer's relationship with God is thus established on the unchangeable work of Christ, ensuring that eternal life is a guaranteed inheritance for all who believe.
