Romans 5:11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
reconciliation. The King James translation uses the word atonement which helps avoid repetition of the word reconcile from vs.10. The word meanings are very similar,
So to try and show a difference we can say; vs.10's reconciled means your reestablished back into fellowship with GOD. vs.11 reconciliation means you've received atonement or complete forgiveness.
The Old Testament Hebrew atonement made a covering for the sins a (ko-far) but the New Testament Greek word for atonement (kat-al-lag-ay) means you are at one with GOD, because your sins are not covered but are removed as far as the Eest from the West. They’re put away.
