Christ justified us by taking away the guilt of sin, procuring remission and pardon of them, redeeming us from their power along with the curse and wrath due unto us for them. For by His own blood He entered into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. He redeemed us from the curse being made a curse for us. His own self bearing our sins in his own body on the tree. We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God, but are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, who God has set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins. For in Him we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins. John Owen.

But God being rich in mercy because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ. By grace, you have been saved and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. So that in the coming ages, he might show the measurable riches of his grace and kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God.
