Definition: Redemption refers to the process or act of bringing a person back from death, typically through an act of God, grace, or divine intervention. It can refer to the actual process of being resurrected by the Spirit, or the idea that someone's sins have been forgiven and they are no longer condemned (recovered) by their sin (retribution). The word "redemption" comes from Latin and literally means "the bringing back". The idea is that after death, a person has the opportunity to be raised up again, reborn into a new life. This can happen through various divine or human interventions, such as the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the conversion of Paul to Christianity, or the act of God's mercy and grace on certain individuals.
