1. The Lord Jesus hath purchased Deliverance for them, he hath laid down a satisfactory Price or Ransom for those Captives, who through Faith in him shall obtain Deliverance.
2. Christ is ordained and anointed to preach glad Tidings to them.1 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the Poor: He hath sent me to heal the Broken-hearted, to preach Deliverance to the Captives, and recovering Sight to the Blind, and to set at Liberty them that were bound.
3. Many who have been in the like State of Captivity and Bondage have been set at Liberty; Thousands that have been Slaves of Sin and Satan, through the infinite Mercy of God are now in a perfect State of Freedom. Such were some of you, 1saith the Apostle, but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
