Reconciled!

          "For if when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him
           through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled,
           shall we be saved through his life!  Not only is this so, but we also rejoice
           in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received
           reconciliation."   Romans 5:10-11

                                    "A Man (Jesus) of infinite worth,
                                     offering a soul of infinite worth,
                                     to a God of infinite holiness, for
                                     rebels (His chosen people) with
                                     infinite guilt --- and bang! just
                                     like that, they are saved and
                                     reconciled and set apart to God
                                     by that one sacrifice."

            "Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds
              because of your evil behavior.  But now he has reconciled you by
              Christ's physical body through death to present you holy in his sight
              without blemish and free from accusation -- if you continue in your
              faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope held out in the
              gospel."     Colossians 1:21-23a
