How do we know that God makes peace between Himself and us?

Answered in 1 source

God makes peace with us through the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ, who reconciles us to Him while we were still enemies.

The reconciliation between God and man is not initiated by us, as we were once enemies of God (Romans 5:10). Instead, it is God Himself who reconciles us through Christ, as affirmed in Colossians 1:21. This work of reconciliation assures us that the peace we have with God is founded on His sovereign grace, manifested in Jesus' death and resurrection. Thus, we come to peace not by our own merits but through God's gracious initiative.
