Christ paid the purchase price in redeeming the saints. Eternal redemption is not only reward of Christ righteousness but the penalty in justly punishing the wicked. God purchases His chosen people for His own possession. He decided before the creation to purchase people for Himself. God provides salvation for the purchased group for His own glory. In providing eternal life He is redeeming all of the saints corruption. We are displayed before the world as Gods exceptional people in being redeem of our sin and corruption.God paid for our sin and weakness enabling us to live by sufficient grace. He sufficiently accommodates our daily needs, provides us divine protection and recreates our lives.
We are compared to driven sheep who slip and fall, always going astray and subjected to continuous opposition in this evil age. God regards the redeemed saints like His own Son. He guaranteed the payment for an eternal covenant promptly signed in His own blood. God provided the Seal of the eternal covenant as our comforter and advocate. The Spirit comes along side of us to resolutely defend us. He shepherds us on level ground by eliminating anything in our way. The covenant of eternal redemption has been endorsed with the sacred name of the God of Jacob. The covenant is purchased by the blood of the wicked. Every evil act against Gods elect will be paid in the blood of the wicked. Redemption will be satisfied when the saints dip their feet in the blood of corrupt rulers.
Anyone who intentionally causes the beloved saints to stumble in a deliberate act of treachery will be eternally punished. The treacherous man will call on God but will be met with silence. Woe to the covenant breaker who after many warnings scales to the top of the world. He will trade his notable success for an eternity of suffering. God cannot deny Himself in the sacred seal of the eternal covenant that prevents traitors from being saved.
