Atonement or Reconciliation

By: Joseph H. Murray


Atonement or Reconciliation

1. Giving satisfaction for a wrong, loss, or injury; amends.

2. The Atonement – reconciliation of God with sinners through the suffering and death of Christ. [At onement: a being at one, in accord (with God)] – Webster

   “For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement” (Rom. 5:10–11).

   “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is [or let him be] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to Himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto [or put in] us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him” (2Cor. 5:17–21).
