The word "redemption" carries several related meanings, generally revolving around the idea of being saved or restored. Here's a breakdown:
ATONEMENT:
* It can refer to the act of making up for a mistake, fault, or guilt. This involves seeking to correct a wrong.
RESCUE
* It can also mean being rescued or delivered from a negative situation.
FINANCIAL CONTENT
* It can also relate to the act of buying something back, such as redeeming a pawned item, or paying off a debt like a mortgage or bond.
RELIGIOUS CONTENT:
* In Christianity, "redemption" often signifies deliverance from sin and achieving salvation.
Essentially, "redemption" implies a process of being brought back from a negative state to a positive one.
*The GOOD NEWS is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus.
Jesus paid the price for our sin and His resurrection gave us new life.
What does Jesus death on the cross have to do with me?
Seems like Jesus takes our sins personally!
Why is resurrection needed to complete REDEMPTION?
Death will remain the final enemy ( Hebrews 2:14-15)
Because God’s children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying could he break the power of the devil, who had the power of death. Only in this way could he set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying.
Because of the resurrection we read 1 Corinthians 15:54-55
“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”
`THE OLD IS GONE, THE NEW IS HERE
1 Corinthians 15:5 Since we have been united with him in his death, we will also be raised to life as he was. 6 We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin.
