Bible Note: Greetings Alien Resident! Whoops! I forgot to address one of your important points! :-) You wrote: "In addition, the Bible does not contradict itself. For instance, the Ex 21:30 mentions the death may be redeemed for a price, but Psalm 49:7,8 says no one can redeem a even a brother, the price is too high. Reason tells us the first verse relates to a temporary solution while the latter is speaking of our eternal redemption." There is a much simpler explanation. Ex. 21:30 refers to a redemption price paid by one man to another man, while Ps. 49:7-8 refers to man's inability to pay a redemption price to God. The first is possible, while the latter is not!
