Quote of the Day – ‘ “Ransom” refers to the price paid to free a slave or a prisoner; “for” means “in place of.” Christ’s substitutionary death on behalf of those who would put their faith in Him is the most glorious, blessed truth in all of Scripture’ – Dr. John MacArthur in The MacArthur Study Bible
