Colossians 1:20-22

Worldwide English (New Testament)

²⁰ And God chose him to be the one who would bring all things back to himself. God made peace by the blood which Christ gave on his cross. He would bring back all things on earth and in heaven.

²¹ At one time you were far away from God. You hated him in your hearts and you did wrong things.

²² But now Christ himself has died on a cross, and he has brought you back to God. Christ will bring you before God holy, clean, and good.
