A definition: The act of redeeming or the condition of having been redeemed.

The Apostle Paul writes much of the redemption that all believers have experienced the day they were saved.
Romans 3:24Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Romans 8:23And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
1 Corinthians 1:30But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Ephesians 1:7In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Ephesians 1:14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 4:30And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Colossians 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

A definition: To buy back, repurchase, or recover something that was yours.

Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

The HYMN says it best:
Redeemed—how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child, and forever, I am.

Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
   His child, and forever, I am.

Redeemed and so happy in Jesus,
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.

(Chorus)

I think of my blessed Redeemer,
I think of Him all the day long;
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.

(Chorus)

I know I shall see in His beauty
The King in whose way I delight;
Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps,
And giveth me songs in the night.

A read of Genesis 1-3 shows that Adam turned his back on God and chose Sin; separation from God and death was the result .
Romans 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

Mankind needed to be redeemed, so God sent His Son, the Lord Jeseus to Die on the cross, paying the price of the redemption of all who believe.
Galatians 4:5To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Have you ever written down your testimony? The Day you were saved.
Just as there is a specific time you were born, so to, there has to be a specific time you became a child of God, Saved, Born Again.
Here’s some hints on how to do it. On the left side of a blank piece of paper, list these 6 words in a column. Who, What, Where, When, Why, How.
Now next to each word write something pertaining your salvation experience.
For Example: (note: some answers do not have specific answers)
WHO was present?
WHAT was happening? Caused you to respond?
Where were you?
When did it occur? Month? Year? Day? Age?
Why did you respond?
How did you hear about the need for Salvation?
An Example:
WHO – a church altar worker
WHAT – the Preacher was preaching on HELL
Where – in the Church
When – I was about 11 years old, in the fall of 1952
Why – I did not want to go to Hell, I was afraid of dying
How – the preacher gave an altar call
Now take each of your answers and put them into a story of your salvation.
I was not with anyone, sitting alone in the back of the church. It was the fall of 1952, I was 11 years old. The preacher was preaching on Hell and who would go there. At the end of his sermon, He told how to avoid Hell and gave an altar call. I went forward and an adult knelt with me and told me how to be saved. I prayed.
That’s how easy it is. And now you will be able to share your testimony with anyone.
If you are not sure you are saved, here’s how to do it.
Romans 10:9-13 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Now, Pray: Lord Jesus I confess that you are God and that you died, were buried and rose again on the third day to forgive me of my sins.

See you in Heaven!
