Have you ever thought, how much does my life cost? I'm not trying to put a money value on human life, but aren't you curious to how much your life would cost? Well then you should ask Jesus, he is the one that paid the ultimate sacrifice so that we can know him. So the value of our life is a price that is absolutely beyond the value of money or anything else here on Earth. The price for our life required someone to die a brutal death with the only thing on His mind, to save those who which are lost.
In 1 Corinthians Chapter 7 verses 22-23 Paul states that we belong to Christ, not to man. In those days some of the church were slaves, but Paul made it clear to them that they are free from the power of sin in their lives. 22 "For he who is called by the Lord as a slave is the Lord's freedman. Likewise he who is called as a free man is Christ's slave. 23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men."
When it says we are bought a price, it literally means we were bought a price which was death for the Creator of the universe. We were all once slaves to sin, but with Jesus paying a price we have freedom from the slavery. If there was never a time in your life where you were from slavery of sin then its simple: call on Jesus and He will set you free
