Colossians 1:20
Douay-Rheims
And through him to reconcile all things unto himself, making peace through the blood of his cross, both as to the things that are on earth, and the things that are in heaven.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
Heaven and earth are said to be reduced to peace through the cross, since the blood of Christ, being the atonement for the sins of men, prepares them for bliss. By this means angels and saints are brought into intimate union.
