How does God make peace according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

God makes peace through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, which reconciles sinners to Himself.

The Bible teaches that God makes peace primarily through the blood of Christ. In Colossians 1:20, it states that through Christ's death on the cross, God reconciles all things to Himself, establishing peace where there was once enmity. This peace is not merely the absence of conflict but is a profound reconciliation between a holy God and sinful humanity. The peace that God provides through Christ is made effective for those whom He has chosen, ensuring that all whom He calls will ultimately embrace and experience this peace. This profound truth underlines the believer's identity; they transition from being objects of wrath to recipients of grace, leading to a life characterized by true peace and hope.
