Tim Keller discusses the significance of the Red Sea crossing in the Old Testament and its connections to the New Testament, emphasizing that salvation is about getting out of bondage on different levels. Keller goes on to explain that everyone is in bondage to the law, their sinful nature, and idols and mentions how individuals can become enslaved to their own ministries, careers, or success. Redemption is about getting out of bondage, and grace is the means of getting out.
