What does the Bible say about Christ as a ransom for many?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that Christ gave His life as a ransom for many, fulfilling the wage of sin through His death.

In Mark 10:45, it says, 'For even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.' This provision secures the salvation of those for whom He died. Righteousness demands a life in exchange for sin, which only Christ could satisfy by being the perfect substitute for His elect. This idea of ransom is vividly illustrated throughout Scripture, including Job 33:24, where God declares, 'I have found a ransom.' Therefore, Christ's sacrifice is not just a general offer but a specific payment that guarantees redemption for His chosen ones.
