All the Believing Ones Are Reconciled to God by the Cross of Jesus Christ

"And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby..." (Eph 2:16 KJV).

The perpetuity (or clearness) of the written Word is that our Savior and Creator Jesus Christ (the Incarnate Second Person of the Trinity) reconciled the totally depraved sinner in radical corruption devoid of self-appointed redemption (see Rom 3ff; Ps 53ff).  He crucified the enmity of sin or the war of sin in behalf of sinners between God the Father to His Cross alone (that was the Father's design) because through His matchless Cross, Jesus provided forgiveness, cleansing and divine grace to poor elect sinners (Mt 1:21).  Some theologians add or take away from the written Scriptures, but the Scriptures are sufficient (2 Tim 3:16-17).  I am reminded of the Latin phrase Scriptura sacra locuta, res decisa est (that is, Holy Scripture has spoken, the issue is decided).
