The Ransom

Here is presented only the strongest texts that bring out clearly the following three
thoughts:

1. Man is ransomed from death
2. Man is ransomed by the blood of Christ
3. The ransom applies to ALL men

The Scriptures say that false teachers will deny that man is bought with the blood of

Notice that the two Greek words translated as “ransom” are “anti” and “lutron” which
