The impact of sin and need for reconciliation with the Creator God - Yahweh Elohim.

 

Colossians 1:20-22

'And through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross. And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him…'

All of creation bares the effects of sin and needs to be reconciled to God whether here on Earth or in Heaven. Christ Jesus has made peace through the blood of His cross and has made a path to salvation and reconciliation firstly through the justification of those who believe on Him unto eternal life. Then, through the sanctification of those same believers in the waters of baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. So that, they might have the forgiveness of sins and receive the Holy Spirit who puts God's Law in their hearts and minds while working in their hearts a process of life long sanctification.

 

Thus, the impact of sin from the Garden of Eden and the fall of Adam and Eve and subsequently all of mankind is atoned for in the sacrifice of Christ Jesus on the cross at Calvary. This is through the shedding of His blood for the sins of all men. So, that those who believe on Him are cleansed of sin, atoned for, receive salvation in His name, Jesus Christ, and are reconciled unto the creator God, Yahweh Elohim.

 

In the future that God has planned for mankind there can be no sin and no sinners. Therefore it remains up to you that when you hear the gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ. When you understand that He shed His, pure and perfect, blood on the cross as the Lamb of God. He did this that you might be saved and receive eternal life. Your purpose in this life is to choose. Will you believe on Jesus Christ, the Messiah and the Savior or, will you perish out of eternity and die in your sins?
