Bible Verses About Reconciliation
Verses about being reconciled to God and others, restoring broken relationships, and making peace.
Reconciliation is at the very center of the Gospel. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. And then He gave us the ministry of reconciliation — meaning the restored relationship we have with God is meant to overflow into our relationships with others. These Bible verses on reconciliation speak to broken marriages, fractured friendships, wounded churches, and divided communities. They call us to be peacemakers, to go and be reconciled before we worship, to live peaceably with all as much as it depends on us. Reconciliation is hard — and it is holy.
“And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.”
2 Corinthians 5:18-19
