Our Redeemer from of old

Our Redeemer from of old is one of the specifically stated names of God in the Bible. Redemption has always been part of the nature of God. Ever since Adam and Eve sinned in Eden God has been working out his plan to redeem people.

Redemption involves the payment of some kind of substitutionary fee. In our case, we are redeemed by the blood of Jesus (Yeshua‘), God’s perfect Son.
