“For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him...having made peace through the blood of His cross." The word "reconcile" means "to change" or "exchange." It refers to a change in the relationship between the sinner and God. Have you ever had a disagreement with someone you cared about? During the period of estrangement, you just didn't feel right. Then, after you made up, there was an euphoric sigh of relief. Everything had been repaired. The most important relationship you can have in this life is your relationship with God. The good news is that through the blood of Jesus Christ, you have been reconciled! And, that is good, no, great news!
