Christ Died: To Become a Ransom for Many (Mark 10:45)

Jesus' death was the ultimate ransom, freeing us from the captivity of sin. We learned 2 truths in this lesson: First, we need freedom—freedom from sin’s power, guilt, and the emptiness of life without God. Second, Jesus paid this ransom with His own life: "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." (Mark 10:45). Just as Jesus served us, we are called to serve others, following His example of sacrificial love.
