Colossians 1:19-22
19For 1it was 2the Father’s good pleasure for all 3the 4fullness to dwell in Him, 20and through Him to 5reconcile all things to Himself, having made 6peace through 7the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, 8whether things on earth or things in 9heaven.
21And although you were 10formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, 22yet He has now 11reconciled you in His fleshly 12body through death, in order to 13present you before Him 14holy and blameless and beyond reproach--
