poetmom Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 As several people have mentioned, in the Jewish law people were required to make blood sacrifices for sins. This concept is very hard for us to understand today, as we no longer operate by these laws. However, Jesus' sacrificial act had monumental implications because it became THE one and only sacrifice people needed for their sins. We are permanently reconciled--turned from enemies of God to friends of God, and we no longer have the burden of making ourselves holy and acceptable to him on a daily basis. I still have a hard time letting this sink in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highohfaith Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Q2. (Colossians 1:20-22) By what means did Jesus accomplish this reconciliation? What does the blood of his cross have to do with it? What is the purpose of this reconciliation? (verse 22) To whom are we presented? (verse 22) Reconciliation is the finished work of God bringing men from the position and attitude of enmity to the position of attitude and amity by the work of the cross. The key passages stress man as the object of the work in the New Testament because, regardless of one's opinion concerning the objects of the work, all agree, that God is the author and initiator of reconciliation. Men do not begin it. God begins it. The means of reconciliation is very plainly stated to be the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ, or, as Paul puts it here in verse 20 of Colossians 1, "And having made peace through the blood of his cross." So it's by virtue of the death on the ground of that that the Lord God is able to reconcile sinners to himself. We are presented to GOD, free of sin, washed clean as snow by the blood of his precious son! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinstonY Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Q2. (Colossians 1:20-22) By what means did Jesus accomplish this reconciliation? What does the blood of his cross have to do with it? What is the purpose of this reconciliation? (verse 22) To whom are we presented? (verse 22 Jesus accomplished our reconciliation with the Lord by his death on the cross. Jesus an innocent person excepted upon himself the sins of the world, suffered our consequences for the sins and rose from the death in three days. Because Jesus , completely innocent accepted these punishments than he is able to share with us His cloak of righteous so that we can come before God as if we were righteousness. By some mystic way we are transfigured by the blood of the cross of Jesus from this vile body to a resurrected body clothed in righteousness. It is really just like a mapping of a set of objects in field to those another field where they take upon different character. When the white light from the sun passes through a prism it is changed into the colors of the rainbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
