In his sermon titled "Hath Redeemed Us," Norm Wells addresses the theological theme of redemption as depicted in Zechariah 14:10-11, emphasizing God's sovereign work in salvation. He argues that redemption is not merely making people savable, but consists of God's active engagement in actually saving His people, a point he highlights through the parallel with Revelation 5:9. Wells expands this theme by referencing Isaiah 40 and the assurance found in other Scriptures, underscoring that God's promises regarding salvation are fulfilled entirely in Christ. This redemption leads to a transformed community, a secured church that dwells safely in divine peace, signifying both practical comfort and doctrinal assurance for believers in the Reformed tradition.
“He didn't make us savable... but a savior that actually saves his people and a redeemer that actually redeems his people is the best news I ever heard of.”
“The work of righteousness and the effect of righteousness... shall be peace. And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.”
“Nothing can remove God's people from the position that they're in. Shall tribulation... Nope, nope, nope. Nothing shall be able to separate us from the love of God.”
“Every spiritual blessing is yours. Everything. I've held back nothing.”
