A price paid to buy back or to bring about a release from some obligation or undesirable circumstance. A ransom is a sum of money or a price demanded or paid to secure the freedom of an enslaved person. The basic idea of “ransom” is saving somebody from an oppressed condition or dangerous situation through self-sacrifice, such as a price that covers or satisfies justice. At the same time, the term “redemption” is the deliverance that results from the ransom.
The Truth About the Conscience
What does s sailor or navigator of vessels at sea, a hiker trekking through the mountains, the pilot of an aircraft flies his plane above the clouds unable to see the earth, have in common?

What Does the Bible Really Say About Reconciliation?
The Bible teaches that reconciliation is the process of bringing two parties who were separated or in conflict back into a state of harmony and unity. This can happen on a personal level, such as reconciling with a friend or family member, or on a larger scale, such as reconciling nations or groups of people. In the New Testament, the concept of reconciliation is closely tied to the message of Jesus and the work of the Holy Spirit. Jesus came to bring reconciliation between God and humanity, which was made possible through his death on the cross. He reconciled us to God by taking upon himself the punishment for our sins, so that we could be forgiven and reconciled to God. This reconciliation is offered to all people, regardless of their background or circumstances, and is available to anyone who believes in Jesus and repents of their sins.
