This Sunday, we examined how the plagues in Egypt were more than mere calamities—they symbolized God's challenge to Egyptian deities and highlighted Pharaoh's hardened heart and ultimately lead to Israel's liberation. We delve into the concept of redemption across biblical narratives, exploring its significance in both the Old and New Testaments. Discover how God's redemption of Israel from Egypt parallels the ultimate redemption offered through Jesus Christ. In this sermon, Pastor Eddie underscores the importance of understanding the Old Testament to fully grasp the potency of Christ's sacrifice, urging each of us to recognize our need for redemption and embrace the transformative power of Christ's atonement. Redemption is not merely a one-time event but a present-day offer to free individuals from the burden of sin. Self-redemption is impossible, and requires the necessity of a savior--Jesus Christ. ---------- Exodus, Redemption, Plagues, Liberation, Passover, Sacrifice, Jesus Christ, Old Testament, New Testament, Freedom, Legacy, Faith, Mercy, Grace, Church, Compassionate God, Pain, Suffering, Prayer, Justice, Doxa, Church, Washington, Seattle, Redmond, Bellevue, Acts 29, Bible, Gospel
