What does the Bible say about the cost of salvation?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible shows that salvation is free to believers, but it came at a tremendous cost to God, particularly through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ.

The concept of the cost of salvation is deeply rooted in Scripture. In 2 Samuel 24:24, David refuses to offer to the Lord that which costs him nothing, highlighting that true offerings must come at a personal expense. In the New Testament, 1 John 4:9-10 reveals God's love in sending His only Son, Jesus Christ, as the propitiation for our sins, emphasizing the great price paid for our salvation. Jesus lived a perfect life, served without recognition, and ultimately sacrificed Himself to redeem sinners who were inherently unworthy. This profound cost demonstrates the depth of God's love and grace toward His people.
