God's Glorious Atonement of Grace

The word "atonement" appears 82 times in our KJV Bible but only once in the New Testament. Someone once said that atonement meant at-one-ment which can be seen in the translation of the Greek word as "reconciled" on several occasions. The application of His death and the offering of His blood is certainly worthy of our study this evening. God reconciled the elect by laying their sins on Christ and punishing Him for their guilt and shame.
