26But no one may consecrate a firstborn of the livestock, because a firstborn belongs to the LORD. Whether it is an ox or a sheep, it is the LORD’s. 27But if it is among the unclean animals, then he may redeem it according to your valuation and add a fifth of its value. If it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28Nothing that a man sets apartl to the LORD from all he owns—whether a man, an animal, or his inherited land—can be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the LORD.
29No person set apart for destruction may be ransomed; he must surely be put to death.
No devoted thing to the Lord could be redeemed, bought back because it belonged to the Lord, it is the Lord’s.
“In this sense also, one could not escape execution by being “bought back” from the LORD; they had to face the penalty for their crime.” (Guzik)
You were bought for a price!
1 Corinthians 7:23 God paid a high price for you, so don’t be enslaved by the world.
The price was Jesus Christ himself!
If you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you belong to the Lord and nothing can take you out of His grasp!
John 10:28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand.
You either belong to the Lord or to Satan.
Who do you belong to?
Blessings, David
