What the Death of Christ accomplished

When Christ died,
"The Father and his Son intended by the death of Christ to redeem, purge, sanctify, purify, deliver from death, Satan, the curse of the law, to quit of all sin, to make righteousness in Chrst, to bring nigh unto God, all those for whom he died...therefore, Christ died for all and only those in and towards whom all these things recounted are effected..." (The Death of Death, pg 99)

Below are a few Scriptures which support Owen's claim.  Many more can be found by reading the Scriptures:

  • Redeem - Galatians 4:4-5, Titus 2:12-14
  • Purge - Hebrews 9:12, 14; 
  • Sanctify - Hebrews 1:3
  • Purify - Titus 2:14
  • Deliver from death - John 10:28, 2 Timothy 1:10, Romans 5:6-10
  • Deliver from Satan - Romans 16:20
  • Deliver from the curse of the law - Galatians 3:13
  • Quit all sin - Hebrews 9:26, Revelation 5:9-10
  • Make righteousness in Christ - Romans 3:21-22
  • Bring unto God - Ephesians 2:13-16
