RECONCILIATION

Reconciliation in the Gospel means two hostile parties have been brought together and the superior has negotiated certain terms through a mediator to take the once hostile party from inferiority and enmity to equality. Once you become a citizen in the government of God, you have equality with God.

God has made peace between the world and Himself through the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. God in Christ is not imputing men’s sins against them; their sins do not go into their account but in the account of Jesus. When Jesus died, it wasn’t the death of one man; He died for all men. So all men have died and have paid the wages of sin which is death.

All men have been reconciled with God through the substitution of Jesus Christ. God is not angry with us anymore. His wrath has been fully satisfied. The Gospel is the good tidings of the hilarious God.
