Being reconciled to God means that through Christ's death, enmity between humanity and God is removed.
Reconciliation signifies the restoration of the relationship between God and sinners. Romans 5:10 teaches that while we were enemies of God, it was through the death of His Son that we became reconciled. This act implies that Christ bore the sins of His people, satisfying God's justice, and removing the barrier our sin had created. The glorious truth is that through Christ, believers are not merely forgiven but are seen as perfect in His eyes, leading to a new, unwavering relationship with God.
