Atonement means to remove our sin
It was Jesus that made amends,
Through the Spirit we have the power
To break our sinful trend.
Being “born again” is our experience
“Regenerated” by the Holy Spirit,
The work of God in a believer’s life
And a “walk” in Christ our habit.
Every born again believer
In Christ is a new creation
His spiritual condition has been renewed
And this is called “regeneration”.
Now there is no “condemnation”
To any that walk in Christ,
We are God’s covenanted children
Because of Christ’s sacrifice.
There is now a right relationship
“Reconciliation” has been achieved,
Through the precious blood of Jesus
Our sins have been repealed.
God’s cancellation of our sin:
This is expiation,
Jesus’ sacrifice to appease God’s wrath:
This is propitiation.
