The reason Christ came was to make atonement for our sins. For my sins. For your sins. For everyone's sins. Some versions translate the word reconciliation. Just take a moment and remember what that means.
If someone needs to be reconciled to someone else it is because there was something done, in our case sin, that separates two people. A wrong was done that requires a serious work of reconciliation to bring the two people back together. In divorces people will say there are irreconcilable differences. Christ's death on the cross was the atoning act that reconciles us with God and others. Without Christ's death, we would be eternally separated form God.
In Christ we have the atonement, forgiveness and reconciliation that allows us to be God's children. Healing and wholeness can begins. In Christ, the otherwise irreconcilable differences are atoned for.
Thank you. Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for being our high priest and making atonement for our sins and reconciling us back to the Father! Praise be to you in us today!
