Redemption

The significance of Jesus's death, burial, resurrection, and ascension
Jesus redemmed humans through his total obedience to God the Father, even though it cost him his life
Jesus' death was significant because it turned the sky dark which showed that his death had not just affected a couple of people but had affected the whole of creation. Also, the veil that separated the Holy part of the temple from the rest showing that the barrier between us and God had been broken
The early Church fathers teach us that when Jesus died he brought all those who had died believing in God out of Sheol (which is the place of rest until the Messiah came)
The ascension shows that Jesus went and joined his Father in heaven. He left the Holy Spirit to guide his followers to spread his word
Redemption in the Bible
-
-
Jesus the restorer-Adam represents the sin that separated humanity from God whilst Jesus restores that relationship by being completely obedient to Gods will.
Jesus the victor-In his fully human state Jesus experienced suffering and death. He defeated death and in doing so enabled humans to share in the victory over death

Redemtion and the Mass
During Mass, Catholics come together to offer worship. Together they form the Body of Christ on earth. As Jesus once said "For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am the among them"
In the readings, Catholics are reminded that God has guided his people through the years. In the Gospel reading, Jesus demonstrated through his words and actions how God loves, heals, restores and forgives all people
The Eucharist
Offertory-In the offertory, people present bread (the hosts) and wine to God as a sign of thanksgiving
Eucharistic Prayer-During the eucharistic prayer, at the consecration, the words of Jesus at the Last Supper are repeated over the bread and wine: "Take this all of you and eat it. This is my body... This is the Blood of the new and everlasting covenant which will be poured out for you and all people so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me."
The Our Father and Communion-Through Christ's redemtion, believers are allowed to call God 'Father'. At this point in the Mass, they say the prayer that Christ taught, the 'Our Father'
The end of the Mass-After a silent prayer reflecting on the gift received in the Eucharist, Catholics go out into the world and, through their daily actions, share the presence of Christ that they received in the Eucharist with everyone they meet
