The True Basis Of Redemption

If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time, will I wait until my change come. You will call and I will answer You. You will have a desire to the work of Thy hands" ~Job 14:14-15

In this passage is expressed, the true basis of redemption-"You will have a desire to the work of Thy hands."

It is only as we recognize man as the work of God that we can understand his redemption...not merely Adam, the first man, but all the redeemed, as finished, in the image and likeness of God.

To the whole redeemed race, thus finished, the words of the apostle are applicable,-"We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them" (Eph. 2: 10)

Hence in order to understand redemption we must understand Creation; for the former is simply one step in the process of the latter.
