This is true both in terms of the creation and in terms of the continuation and destination of this world. God works through Him:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>the universe is created <strong>in Him<\/strong> <\/li>\n<li>The universe is created <strong>through Him<\/strong> <\/li>\n<li>The universe is created <strong>for Him<\/strong> <\/li>\n<li>the universe <strong>exists in Him<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>through Him<\/strong> [wird Gott] reconcile the universe with Himself.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The context is clear &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/warum-jesus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christ is central<\/a> and everything is meant at every point in the statement. This is the place where it is clearly taught that there is a reconciliation of the universe. Any criticism of the wording must start at this point. However, every hope and every serious question about God&#8217;s purpose finds confirmation here that God does indeed come to the purpose through Christ.<\/p>\n<p>Opponents of the Allauss\u00f6hnung will try, according to experience, to reinterpret the 5th point of this series. All attempts to do so have one primary goal: to leave this context as soon as possible, because in the context itself everything speaks for &#8220;everything&#8221;. When God reconciles the universe to Himself through Him, it is the same universe that was created. The context and wording leave no room for subsets such as &#8220;only the faithful.&#8221; What arguments are often used to reinterpret this statement to mean &#8220;only believers&#8221;?[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;916794&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reinterpretation 1: This is only about an offer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Statement of the opponents of all-auspices: <em>&#8220;The cross and its effect are only <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/De_jure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>de jure<\/strong><\/a> and not <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/De_facto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>de facto.<\/strong><\/a>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>According to this interpretation, it should be here only about an <em><strong>offer of<\/strong> God, not about an actual reconciliation<\/em>. So God would have created only the possibility for it, a kind of semi-finished product, so to speak. The real salvation happens only when man responds.<\/p>\n<p>People like to refer to 2 Cor. 5:18-21, which says that in Christ God reconciled the world to Himself. However, this remains unanswered by man for the time being. So man cannot stand in reconciliation because he has not affirmed reconciliation until now. This should be tantamount to assuming that there is then no chance of rescue. So the assumptions lead to further wild inferences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong> Various things can be said about this interpretation: 1. the text should first be read in its own context and understood there. There, it&#8217;s not about an offer, or about man having to do something. The context is about God acting, and acting through His Son. That wants to be taken seriously. 2 The text in Corinthians does not stand against the background of an all-encompassing statement about the work of Christ. So apples and oranges are being compared, even though the wording seems to be the same. More about this under the second point.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;404138&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reinterpretation 2: Man must be reconciled<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Statement of the opponents of all reconciliation: <em>&#8220;God will only reconcile those who <strong>allow<\/strong> themselves to be reconciled <strong>.&#8221;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>With a reference to Col 1:21-22, it is said that this mutual reconciliation speaks only of believers. For Paul writes: <em>&#8220;You also, who were once strangers and enemies in mind and evil works, He has now reconciled in the body of His flesh through His death&#8230;&#8221;<\/em>. So the apostle points directly to the atonement, but speaks only of those who are in the faith. Only those who can be reconciled will be able to be reconciled.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong> In fact, the key to deeper understanding lies in these following verses. The primary statement, however, remains the first: God will reconcile all things to Himself, making peace through the blood of the cross. Here, God&#8217;s action is central. The comparison with the believers in the following verses confirms this, for it is no different in God&#8217;s dealings with us: &#8220;You&#8230;He has also now&#8230;reconciled.&#8221; Paul makes it clear here that God was the agent in our lives as well. So it is not that we have done the work of faith that makes reconciliation possible, but that God has reconciled us. This is what we believe (cf. also 1 Cor. 1:30-31 Eph. 2:8-10).[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;880759&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reinterpretation 3: One-sided reconciliation?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Statement of the opponents of all-reconciliation: <em>&#8220;This is about the same <strong>one-sided<\/strong> reconciliation as in 2 Corinthians 5:18-21&#8243;. <\/em>The one-sided reconciliation of God with the world requires an answer. However, according to 2 Corinthians 5:18-21, this is not automatically given.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong> Once again, apples are being compared with oranges. While both passages speak of reconciliation, they do so with different contexts and even different words, according to the basic text. In Second Corinthians, Paul uses the Greek <em>katalasso<\/em> (etymologically: to <em>change down<\/em>). God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself and not counting the offenses against it.<\/p>\n<p>From above, from God, the starting position has been completely changed. This is 100% given from God. But a mutual reconciliation is not given here, which is why Paul sees himself as a messenger for Christ and says: <em>&#8220;Be reconciled to God! For He who knew not sin made Him to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him&#8221; (2 Cor. 5:20-21).<\/em> This is not the demand with which the gospel comes to the world, but it is what the gospel brings about in Paul and his own, and what is passed on here to the church in Corinth. It is not man who is central, but Christ and God&#8217;s action in Him that is central. This is good news.<\/p>\n<p>In the letter to the Colossians, another aspect is in the foreground. It is the universal meaning of Jesus Christ, as the son of God&#8217;s love. Just as everything was created and is sustained<strong> in Him<\/strong> and <strong>through Him<\/strong>, and He becomes <strong>the first in everything<\/strong> <strong>,<\/strong> <strong>the universe<\/strong> will also be <strong>reconciled with Him<\/strong> <strong>through Him<\/strong>. A stronger term is used here than earlier. The Greek <em>apokatalasso<\/em> (etymologically: <em>from-herab-change<\/em>) is the intensified form of the previously mentioned <em>katalasso<\/em>. It occurs only three times (Eph 2:16; Col 1:20; Col 1:22).<\/p>\n<p>The world is reconciled, namely everything that was divided. Reconciliation in Col 1:20 is not one-sided, but mutual &#8211; as in the other two passages. Believers may be mutually reconciled with God. This is what is intended for space. Making peace <strong>through the blood of the cross<\/strong>, it is said, God will reconcile the universe to Himself.<\/p>\n<p>Where there is peace now, there is no more enmity &#8211; it is reconciled. That it speaks of &#8220;making peace through the blood of the cross&#8221; refers to the process that takes place only then. Making peace, blood of the cross and reconciliation of all things go hand in hand.<\/p>\n<p>The all atonement is God&#8217;s response to the need of the world, based on the cross of Christ. He is the great Allauss\u00f6hner and others do not exist.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;3&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"pld-like-dislike-wrap pld-template-1\">\r\n    <div class=\"pld-like-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"javascript:void(0)\" class=\"pld-like-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"37741\" data-trigger-type=\"like\" data-restriction=\"cookie\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-up\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-like-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\">0    <\/span>\r\n<\/div><div class=\"pld-dislike-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"javascript:void(0)\" class=\"pld-dislike-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"37741\" data-trigger-type=\"dislike\" data-restriction=\"cookie\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-down\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-dislike-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\">0<\/span>\r\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colossians 1:20<br \/>\nGod is the great All-Asocialist<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":35919,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[551,552,1469],"tags":[667,554,559,557,570],"class_list":["post-37741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-allaussoehnung-en","category-bible-texts-interpreted","category-short-reflections","tag-all-reconciliation","tag-allaussoehnung-en","tag-bible-study","tag-last-things","tag-theology"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The reconciliation of the universe &#8226;

Seine evangelikale Pr\u00e4gung f\u00fchrte zu kritischen Fragen, die 2014 zur Gr\u00fcndung von kernbeisser.ch und sp\u00e4ter zum Start seines YouTube-Kanals f\u00fchrten. In einem jahrelangen Dekonstruktions- und Rekonstruktionsprozess entwickelte er eine theologische Position, die akademische Tiefe mit pers\u00f6nlicher Zug\u00e4nglichkeit verbindet. Risseeuw bewegt sich bewusst auf der Grenze zwischen evangelikaler Tradition und progressivem Christentum. Seine Arbeit richtet sich an fragende Evangelikale sowie Menschen, die in Dekonstruktionsprozessen stecken und intellektuelle Tiefe suchen, ohne ihren Glauben zu verlieren. Sein Ansatz: Weg vom religi\u00f6sen Leistungsdenken, hin zur paulinischen Botschaft der Gnade. Mit Hunderten Artikeln und einem mehrsprachigen Online-Angebot (Deutsch, Englisch, Niederl\u00e4ndisch) begleitet er Menschen durch theologische Umbr\u00fcche \u2013 europ\u00e4isch-sachlich, akademisch fundiert, aber nie elit\u00e4r. Es geht ihm nicht prim\u00e4r darum, \u00abwas\u00bb Menschen glauben, sondern \u00abwie\u00bb und \u00abwozu\u00bb sie glauben, damit Lebens- und Glaubensentfaltung stattfinden k\u00f6nnen.","sameAs":["http:\/\/kernbeisser.ch"]}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35919"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kernbeisser.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
