Atonement
Then he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him (Leviticus 1:4).
Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed (Romans 3:24-25).
He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world (1 John 2:2).
Guilty, vile, and helpless, we; / Spotless Lamb of God was He: / Full atonement!—can it be? / Hallelujah! What a Savior!
~ Philipp Paul Bliss
When we are filled with the Holy Spirit, he unites us body, soul, and spirit with God until we are one with God even as Jesus was. This is the meaning of the Atonement—at-onement with God.
~ Oswald Chambers
Jesus alone can make atonement because he is the atonement—the at-onement of God and man.
~ Gonville ffrench-Beytagh
In the cross, God descends to bear in his own heart the sins of the world. In Jesus, he atones at unimaginable cost to himself.
~ Woodrow A. Grier
A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do; all we have to do is to enter into it.
~ Dwight Lyman (D.L.) Moody
God requires satisfaction because he is holiness, but he makes satisfaction because he is love.
~ Augustus Hopkins Strong
