”forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:“
1 Peter 1:18-19 KJV
For we know that our lives were ransomed once and for all from the empty and futile way of life handed down from generation to generation. It was not a ransom payment of silver and gold, which eventually perishes, but the precious Blood of Christ—Who like a spotless, unblemished Lamb was sacrificed for us. We were ransomed from the futile, fallen mindset that we inherited from our fathers. This was not concluded by our own labour represented by the fluctuating values of gold and silver and the economy of our religious efforts; but we are redeemed with the priceless Blood of Christ. He is the ultimate Sacrifice; spotless and without blemish. Jesus completes the prophetic picture. Deity clothed in human skin, as the Son; the Lion of Judah becoming the Lamb of God in order to free our minds to rediscover His image and likeness in our skin! Hallelujah!
