And through him God reconciled everything
to himself. He made peace with everything
in heaven and on earth by means of Christ's
blood on the cross.
Colossians 1:20, NLT
Christ's death provided a way for all
people to come to God. It cleared away the
sin that keeps us from having a right
relationship with our Creator. This does not
mean that everyone has been saved, but
that the way has been cleared for anyone
who will trust Christ to be saved.
We can have peace with God and
be reconciled to him by accepting Christ,
who died in our place. Is there a distance
between you and the Creator? Be reconciled
to God. Come to him through Christ.
