CloseAmbassadors for Christ II Corinthians 5:17-21 Main Point: Now that we are reconciled to God through Jesus Christ, we are called to be Christ’s ambassadors. We represent Him to everyone around us. Ambassador = One who is an authorized representative, authorized messenger. 1. If we are reconciled to God through Jesus Christ, then we are a new creation through the indwelling Spirit – the old is gone and we are made new! (verses 17-19) Are you reconciled to God through Jesus Christ? Verse 20 Be Reconciled! Walking worthy of His calling on your life? Ephesians 4:1 2. As His ambassadors Jesus has committed this message of reconciliation to us to appeal to the unsaved around us. Appeal = to call near, invite, implore, beseech. -v.20 ‘we implore you’ = we invite you, urge you, beseech you - be reconciled to God thru Christ! How have you been allowing God to appeal thru you to those around you who do not yet know Christ? His Love _____ us!(verse 14) He is making His appeal through us! Luke 14:24
