1 Corinthians 6:19. Good works is also refraining from sin. Jesus walked on this Earth and did not sin. His example of a sinless life proves and inspires us that we do not have to sin. We can do the same “good works” of refraining from sin and inspiring others (1 Corinthians 6:19, “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?”).

Romans 8:23. The definition of Christian redemption also addresses our physical body. Redemption will occur not only for us spiritually, but also physically. Our body will change from mortal to immortal. The final redemptive act of Christian redemption is the glorifying of our bodies.

Hebrews 9:12. From a Christian perspective the definition of redemption specifies that the only redeemer is Jesus. Only Jesus’ act on the cross, his blood sacrifice, to take the punishment for our sins can lead to our eternal redemption. Jesus is the only one that has the perfect ransom and perfect gift to save us. There is no other way to salvation and redemption. Jesus’ redeeming act on the cross paid the ransom (price) for our sins. Jesus does not need to take on the punishment for our sin anymore. It is finished.

Psalms 72:14. When we define deceit we must remember that deceit is not a permanent condition. A person is set free from a particular deceit once he knows the truth (John 8:32, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”). When we do not know the truth we are in bondage, but we do not have to stay in bondage. By knowing the truth all the destructive aspects of deceit become null and void. People living in deceit are headed for destruction only if they do not know or accept the truth.

Hosea 7:13. When we define deceit another aspect is it suppresses the truth. In Christianity deceit results in people not even knowing they need salvation and redemption through Jesus Christ. Through deceit we either do not know God or we have a corrupt view of God. Because of deceit we stay followers of Satan headed for destruction. Through deceit we become haters of God instead of lovers of God. We let Satan keep us in bondage even though Jesus Christ has already done everything necessary on the cross for all of us to be redeemed (Hosea 7:13, “Woe unto them!
