 53Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Unless ye shall have eaten the flesh of the Son of man, and drunk his blood, ye have no life in yourselves.
 54He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood has life eternal, and I will raise him up at the last day:
 55for my flesh is truly food and my blood is truly drink.

• We glory, not only in our salvation {v.2}, and even in tribulation {v.3}, but, knowing such a Saviour God (a God who has raised up Jesus from the dead, and has saved us in His love), we glory in Him {v.11}. Higher joy than this we cannot have. (“Romans 5:1-11” by J.N. Darby)
• There has been a radical change in the mind of the believer whereby he now rejoices in his relationship with God and his nearness to Him. (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• Reconciliation, as presented in the gospel, never sees God and man meeting somewhere in between, but man (believers) being "brought" to God (1 Peter 3:18; Eph. 2:13). To guard against this mistaken idea, Scripture never says that we are reconciled with God. Such a statement might convey the idea that there has been some compromise on God's side as well as on man's. Scripture carefully states that believers are reconciled "to" God (Rom. 5:10; 2 Cor. 5:20; Eph. 2:16; Col. 1 :20). (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)

a
It is commonly known that it should be "the reconciliation," not "the atonement." To be reconciled to God supposes more than atonement, redemption from the enemy, and justification; it comprehends, besides, ourselves set in relationship with God righteously, according to the purpose of His grace. It means, neither changing God’s mind from alienation into love, nor merely man brought out of his enmity to God, but the God of love and holiness having so wrought in the sacrifice of Christ, that He can righteously send the gospel of grace to every creature, and establish every believer in a new and steadfast relationship of favour with Himself.
