ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 1 v30

GOD MADE CHRIST OUR SANCTIFICATION. AMBROSE: Christ was made our sanctification, not so that he might change what he was but that he might sanctify us in the flesh. THE HOLY SPIRIT 3.4.26.12

OUR REDEMPTION. AMBROSIASTER: Christ did what he did in order to strengthen believers, for no one can redeem something which did not originally belong to him. Therefore, whether it is because we have been redeemed, or because we have been sanctified (i.e., purged from the works of the flesh and the filthiness of idols), or because we have been justified (for it is just to worship only the Creator and spurn everything else) or because we are wise, having learned that worldly people are unwise–all this is a gift of God through Christ. But this is our redemption—when the devil desires it, Christ offers himself to the devil so that he may cancel sin and rescue the devil’s captives. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.13

OUR RANSOM. GREGORY OF NYSSA: We are taught by the knowledge that Christ is redemption, because he gave himself as an atonement on our behalf, that when he bestowed immortality on us as our own possession, he ransomed us from death with his own life. ON PERFECTION.14

OUR SALVATION. CHRYSOSTOM: God did not just make us wise, righteous and holy in Christ. He gave us Christ so that we should never need anything else for our salvation. HOMILIES ON THE EPISTLES OF PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS 5.4.15
