Or cast out into utter, outer darkness. Matt.8:12, Matt.22:13, Matt.25:30.

So it is not so much a case of 'us and them', as a case of 'we all have been given a lifetime of Grace'. We either chose to use it for God or against God and there will be rewards and consequences which ever way we chose. And 'now' is always the time to be saved. Matt.6:30-34.

Correct!

Rev. 3:16...………..
"So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

Some section of your post were taken verbatim from sources. But for some reason you didn't credit the sources. Very strange.

This took care of the disrupted relationship. But it didn’t solve the punishment for sin, which was death.

Jesus’ resurrection solved this problem. Jesus was killed and then came back to life, as the first example of what will happen to us as well. Jesus showed us that death isn’t the end of the story. God’s goal to have us as part of His family can’t be defeated by death. Because we will be resurrected like Him.

Christian reconciliation is a glorious truth! We were God’s enemies, but are now His friends. We were in a state of condemnation because of our sins, but we are now forgiven. We were at war with God, but now have the peace that transcends all understanding.

A. Relationship restoration.

You can't have a restored relationship unless you actually want it restored YOURSELF. Unless you forgive your brother from your heart, there is no forgiveness for you. Matt.18:35. Unless we are ourselves reconciled to God we cannot benefit from God's forgiveness of US. Relationship is a two way affair.
