 God gives us the freedom from sin. He purchased our salvation when he went to the cross in our place. He redeemed all of mankind. Without the shedding of blood, we know there is no remission of sin. In John 3, 16 and 17, it says, For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but would have everlasting life.
