Some years ago a Japanese business executive living in South America was kidnapped. His captors demanded a ransom of a million dollars. If it was not paid, the executive would be killed. The ransom was paid and the man was freed and restored to his family. In a similar way humanity is a captive of Satan and threatened with death. Christ gives his life on the cross as a ransom that sinners might be redeemed from sin, death, and hell. As God the Father's work was the creation of the universe, God the Son's work was the redemption of humanity.
