 54Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

• Reconciliation, as presented in the gospel, never sees God and man meeting somewhere in between, but man (believers) being "brought" to God (1 Peter 3:18; Eph. 2:13). To guard against this mistaken idea, Scripture never says that we are reconciled with God. Such a statement might convey the idea that there has been some compromise on God's side as well as on man's. Scripture carefully states that believers are reconciled "to" God (Rom. 5:10; 2 Cor. 5:20; Eph. 2:16; Col. 1 :20). (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)

And not only that, but we are making our boast in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we have received the reconciliation.

And not only so, but boasting also in God by our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom now we have received the reconciliationa.

WK Translation Notes

a
It is commonly known that it should be "the reconciliation," not "the atonement." To be reconciled to God supposes more than atonement, redemption from the enemy, and justification; it comprehends, besides, ourselves set in relationship with God righteously, according to the purpose of His grace. It means, neither changing God’s mind from alienation into love, nor merely man brought out of his enmity to God, but the God of love and holiness having so wrought in the sacrifice of Christ, that He can righteously send the gospel of grace to every creature, and establish every believer in a new and steadfast relationship of favour with Himself.
