Romans 3:24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

'Justified' -1344. dikaioo dik-ah-yo'-o; from 1342; to render (i.e. show or regard as) just or innocent: -free, justify(-ier), be righteous.

'Freely' -'free gift'. To receive the benefits of Christ's death is conditional (faith-Romans 3:22); but the 'basis' of our redemption, the reason WHY Christ died for us, contained no conditions. (Romans 5:8)

'Grace' -Favor bestowed on the unworthy by. God who is tender and kind.."the idea of grace is. gift, given out of the sheer generosity of the giver's heart,. gift which the receiver could never have earned and could never have deserved by any efforts of his own".

'Redemption' -629. apolutrosis ap-ol-oo'-tro-sis; from. compound of 575 and 3083; (the act) ransom in full, i.e. (figuratively) riddance, or (specially) Christian salvation: -deliverance, redemption.

-a 'ransoming from',. price paid for the deliverance of that which is delivered. 'Lutron'-is common in the papyri as the purchase-money in freeing slaves. (Robertson p. 347)

This 'buying back' wasn't accomplished with silver or gold (1 Peter 1:18), nor was it achieved with brains and brawn. 'It wasn't by culture or social standing. Deliverance doesn't lie in working our way out, or inventing our way out or subverting our way out, or carousing our way out, or thinking our way out, or warring our way out, but by admitting that CHRIST IS THE WAY OUT!'

'in Christ Jesus' -(2 Timothy 1:9; Ephesians 1:3; Ephesians 1:7). And how does one get 'in Christ Jesus'? (Galatians 3:26)
