Subject: The ransom - God or man? |
Bible Note: I want to discuss God's justice as supremely expressed in the ransom. The virgin birth of Jesus establishes that he needed to be a sinless, perfect man to begin with. The Scriptures indicate that despite repeated temptation and cruel ridicule and torture unto death, he maintained sinless - thus providing a spotless and unblemished Lamb of God as the redemption price. I am asking for the Scriptural proof that the ransom price for Adam needed to be God himself. I have supplied the evidence that it needed to be the equivalent of Adam. |
