God made it and it was good 3. Desire to be our own Lord a. Broken relationship with God b. Broken relationship with one another c. We need something or someone to restore us to God. There is a sin problem separating us from God and we need that repaired somehow.
Redemption is one name for the solution.
It means literally to be bought back - and be in a right relationship again. Restoration is a word describing the relational process. Yet, what we discover is that we cannot effect our own healing. It is Jesus Christ that brings our healing. First we have a word about the name - Jesus Christ.
