...who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.
Titus 2:14
Jesus gave Himself for us.
He endured the shame.
He took the scourging.
He experienced the mocking.
He was hated and despised.
And carrying His own cross, He climbed that hill to be crucified
...to give Himself for us.
Jesus redeemed us...
...from the lawlessness of sin.
...from the worst things about us.
...while we were wrong about Him and about everything.
...even though we were His enemies.
He redeemed us for Himself.
Jesus purifies a people.
...so that they may be His own.
...so that they may have a new identity.
...so that they may be forgiven.
...so that their sins and lawlessness will be remembered no more.
...so that they may now do good.
He purifies us.
