2 Corinthians 5:20 says Now then we are ambassadors for CHRIST as though GOD was pleading through us, we implore you on CHRISTS behalf, be reconciled to GOD.We are all called to be amnbassadors for CHRIST. This is part of being HIS disciple. Everything we do and say reflects on the ONE who sends us. That means we have to live an upright, holy life. We have no greater calling, privilege or responsibility. When CHRIST went up to Heaven the ministry of reconciliation became ours. That means we are called to help others to begin or restore their relationship with CHRIST. We can hold our head up high confident in our calling. We are HIS representatives engaged to do HIS work. HE sends us to plead with the hearts of men to be reconciled to CHRIST. There is no higher calling. GOD has given all of us specific purposes to fulfill during our time on earth including spreading the Gospel, serving others and Spiritual growth. We should be distinguished visibly. Whe we walk in a room others should know instantly we are a Christian. Paul,for example, did not define honor by what man thought. His honor came from GOD. Therefore persecution did not phase Paul. Ambassadors try to persuade people to accept their rulers agenda for their lives. GOD has entrusted us with this awesome privilege. We need to embrace this knowing every other purpose is pale in comparison. We need to make the most of this opportunity while we still have time. I urge you to be an ambassador for CHRIST.
Are You an Ambassador for Christ?
The Devotional forum is meant by SI rules to be uplifting and Donna's post is. Your comment however short isn't clear...much less edifying.Why?
