Redeemed of the Lord

About the Book

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the Lord of the enemies. —Psalm 107:2 Many questions have been asked concerning the redeemed or redemption, such as, What is the meaning of the word redeemed, who are the redeemed, or is there a process one must go through in order to obtain redemption? Ministers, soul winners, and missionaries alike are approached with these questions at some time or another. Most people asking these questions truly are seeking honest answers. Not often one will ask questions on redemption for sarcastic reasons. For some unknown reason, these questions create problems and misunderstanding for some and causes confusion for others. It is the author’s determination to solve some of the problems and clear the minds of some who may be confused. The questions and problems in this presentation are of great significance because they present the arguments for this study. One most important factor as we enter this field of study is that we must use the absolute, correct approach in answering any questions, but especially questions where religion and Christianity are concerned. The second most important factor is that one must have some background and knowledge on the subject matter before attempting to answer any question and most importantly any question that is biblical. Third, one must be able to rightly divide the matter, the material, the evidence, and the proof of the issue that is being discussed or argued. To fulfill the prescribed course work, I am presenting this thesis of not less than forty thousand words in length. This entire work will culminate, if approved, in a degree of master of theology (ThM) with a deep interest in the field of Christian education as an instructor. It is also my sincere desire to continue my work in this field and to immediately start working on a doctorate degree in theology, again my main focus being Christian education. I have no doubt that teaching is my calling for the work in the Master’s vineyard. Ruthie Johnson
