If you changed more than a few lines in your .emacs, you can do
M-x eval-buffer in the .emacs buffer. Debugging Emacs Lisp is
described in the GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual. Type
C-h i d m elisp m debugging if you have its info file installed.
It is not (yet) packaged together with Emacs. A copy can be
obtained from http://www.gnu.org/manual/elisp/
