Redemption:
Christians believe that mankind was created specifically to have a relationship with God, but that sin separates all men from God (Romans 5:12, Romans 3:23). Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ walked this earth, fully God, and yet fully man (Philippians 2:6-11), and died on the cross. Christians believe that after His death on the cross, Christ was buried, He rose again, and now lives at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for the believers forever (Hebrews 7:25). Christianity proclaims that Jesus’ death on the cross was sufficient to completely pay the sin debt owed by all men and this is what restores the broken relationship between God and man (Hebrews 9:11-14, Hebrews 10:10, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:8).

GOD does as GOD says.
Humans stray from promised goals.
Jesus backs up that GOD is there and cares.
Jesus explains that love is most important.
(Also OT is family tree toJesus, and NT is the life and growth of the faith.)

Redemption
God created a perfect creation, man sinned and corrupted it, the Bible is the story of how God redeems man back to Himself through the Blood of Christ.
