Atonement is most often used to mean the reconciliation of [[God]] and [[man]] through the death of [[Jesus Christ]]. Christ died once for all (Hebrews 6:10, 1 Peter 3:18) to atone for sin. To reject this [[axiom]] is to leave a myriad of sins, both personally, and collectively of a society, unaccounted for and exposed. (Hebrews 6:4-8; 10:28-31; 2 Peter 1:9.)

In [[Protestantism|Protestant Christian]] doctrine, atonement is a cover or covering for sin (Hebrew ''kippur''; French ''coiffure''; English ''coffer'', ''cover''). The sin or blot can '''''never''''' be removed, it can only be covered or atoned for. This is clearly expressed in [[Martin Luther]]'s commentaries on St. [[Paul]]'s Letters to the [[Epistle to the Romans|Romans]] and the [[Galatians]]. See also [[Calvinism]].
