I've had many ideas throughout the years of playing Redemption so I'm sure I can come up with some:

Lost Soul
Daniel 1:3 (if there is a better verse, I'd be willing to use that one)

This is half a joke and half a card that could be good for a Daniel deck, so I can run these instead of other Lost Souls to take better advantage of The Foretelling Angel

1) Unnamed Multicolor Site (Maybe referring to the 40 years Israel spent wandering the Desert and yes I realize we have lots of multicolored sites, but this one is different I promise)
You may add this card to opponent's side of battle when you are attacked.
Choose a Lost Soul in the attacked player's land of bondage that the attacking character has access to, they are going after that Lost Soul instead.

This one is an interesting access site because it lets you choose which Lost Soul your opponent can go after, but the real reason for this site is to allow Type 2 players to actually take advantage of sites that require the hero to be going after them. And it has a few other interesting uses too.

2) Evil Fortress (Some kind of armory, it could also be good)
If your (evil) weapon is discarded from play, return it to hand instead. (If that's too powerful, it could be top or bottom decked instead, or even added to the reserve)

This one is because weapons on evil characters are incredibly vulnerable, and while I'm not convinced it's a good idea to stop my opponent completely from removing my weapons, it would be nice if they weren't always just discarded.

3) Micaiah (maybe)
Green brigade hero
No idea what he'd do, but his story is fascinating. Ahab and Jehoshaphat are considering going to war together and all Ahab's prophets are saying "Go, you'll win" but Jehoshaphat asks if there's a prophet of God among them, so he calls up Micaiah who (after being told to agree with everyone) says, sarcastically I assume, "Go and be victorious." To which Ahab chastises him for lying. Then he says, "If you go, you're not coming back" he saw God in heaven asking his host how he can deceive Ahab, and eventually a lying spirit said he would go. And for his message he gets sent to a prison to live on meager rations until Ahab comes in peace.

Evil multicolor enh- Pride: Place this on your character. When it enters battle, you may play an enhancement.

Artifact- Pollice Verso: Each player may toss characters as enhancements in battle from hand. Each player may discard a character of matching brigade and alignment from hand to increase their character in battle by x/x. May be activated on Coliseum. X= Strength of discarded character.

And this one

you would have to play the dominate, each dominate would say something like "if The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit are in play and you have done X, you win the game.  cannot be banish or discarded" Each X would be different for each dominate, like convert some amount of EC's, rescue a LS with a NT hero, discard some amount of demons, something like that.  they would also have the identifier that they could be the only good dominates in your deck, or at least like TSC cant be in there with SoG

Micaiah: Green prophet, 8/2, Once per game, you may choose a King of Israel to block or discard an evil king. After battle, capture Micaiah to opponent's Land of Bondage. Cannot be negated.

Nephilim: Pale green/orange, 6/12, generic, antediluvian, human giant, Once per game, you may convert a human female to a good or evil brigade of your choice. may band to a female evil character. Cannot be negated if a demon is in play.     
   
Shepherd (from isaiah): White, 3/4, Generic, X = Number of animals in your Land of bondage, You may capture any number of animals to your Land of Bondage to draw X (limit 3). Cannot be interrupted. 

Edit: I probably wouldn't make the last two for my winner cards, they were just fun ideas i had. Totally would make Micaiah though, he is my favorite person in the bible.

Micaiah: Green prophet, 8/2, Once per game, you may choose a King of Israel to block or discard an evil king. After battle, capture Micaiah to opponent's Land of Bondage. Cannot be negated.

I like it. I had no idea what Michaiah would do, but this definitely fits.

Another card I want, I'm not sure what reference, or even what card type, but a card that is something like:

"When an opponent would search a deck, they look at the top N cards instead."

I'm not entirely sure if this is worded correctly or what 'N' should be (it could be X, or it could just be a specific number) but basically it's a way to weaken search while not completely stopping search.

I love that fort idea

Cursed Ground

"When you play this, search deck for a curse.  When your OT evil human is discarded by an opponent, you may banish this card or your curse instead."

Whoops, you're right, I was just copying/pasting some of my past New Card ideas... 

The Triple Crown!!

Faith Hope and Love

Faith clay fruit enh
You may search deck, discard, or reserve for a card with Faith in the title and play it.

Hope clay enh
Place on your hero. After hero enters battle, you may discard this to choose an opponent's evil character to block or ignore evil characters.

Love clay fruit
Place this on an opponent's lost soul: Protect lost soul from opponents and after 3 turns you may discard this card to rescue this lost soul.
