Bible References

The earnest

For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father!”

He has also sealed us and given us the Spirit as a down payment in our hearts.

And the One who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave us the Spirit as a down payment.

And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”

The redemption

And don’t grieve God’s Holy Spirit. You were sealed by Him for the day of redemption.

You are to allow the redemption of any land you occupy.

Remember Your congregation,
which You purchased long ago
and redeemed as the tribe for Your own possession.
Remember Mount Zion where You dwell.

He brought them to His holy land,
to the mountain His right hand acquired.

Watch! Hanamel, the son of your uncle Shallum, is coming to you to say, ‘Buy my field in Anathoth for yourself, for you own the right of redemption to buy it.’

But when these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near!”

Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock that the Holy Spirit has appointed you to as overseers, to shepherd the church of God, which He purchased with His own blood.

And not only that, but we ourselves who have the Spirit as the firstfruits—we also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.

But you are a chosen race,

a royal priesthood,

a holy nation,

a people for His possession,

so that you may proclaim the praises

of the One who called you out of darkness
into His marvelous light.
