Send us a text “Bought With Blood That Does Not Rust” What if something very important about you was determined long before you were born? We open 1 Peter 1 and consider the truth that Christ’s precious blood redeemed us, not silver, gold, or family religion. Precious here means costly, chosen with care, and full of purpose. To make it real, we talk about farming, bloodlines, and what it means to give up the best lamb. When a farmer offered the first and finest animal, it cost the future of the herd. That is the point. True sacrifice hurts, and the cross was the ultimate costly gift. From there, we talk about what grace like that does to the heart. When God says, “Be holy,” it is not a command to perform better but to love. The cross determined your worth. Your works cannot buy what Christ paid for. That truth breaks shame and pride and changes how you live each day. Reading the Bible stops being a test. It becomes time with a Father who is kind and patient, who planned your redemption before the world began. We end by looking at small, quiet shifts in how we think and live. Sin becomes wounding a relationship, not breaking a rule. Money and status lose their grip. And you learn to let your mind rest on one steady thought: blood that does not rust bought you. If you are weary from trying to prove yourself or afraid you have to earn God’s love, this conversation is for you. Please share this with someone who needs to know. Thanks for listening.
