THE GOSPEL: THE POWER OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!

“. . . 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that perish FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which are SAVED it is the POWER of God . . .” 1 Corinthians 1:17-25.

The GOSPEL is about the CROSS, the CROSS is about CHRIST JESUS, and CHRIST JESUS is the POWER of God, the POWER of God is about human SALVATION – and NOTHING ELSE; otherwise, it’s more to human BONDAGES, PERVERSIONS, DISTORTIONS AND ADULTERATIONS.

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

The Gospel is to PREACH Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD made manifest in the flesh, that brings about COMPLETE and WHOLESOME REDEMPTION of God to all of mankind that looks up to Him. If you must PREACH THE GOSPEL, PREACH THE WORD, PREACH CHRIST JESUS, then THE WORD which is CHRIST JESUS, the SAVIOUR and LORD, will bring about human SALVATION – ANSWERS to all human QUEST.

“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.

Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you in Christ Jesus stead, throw it into the bin – discard it, I mean seriously, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated. Your EARS and well-being is not made for garbage and as trash can for rubbish ADULTERATIONS.

“Some indeed PREACH CHRIST even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH CHRIST of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, SUPPOSING to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, CHRIST IS PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

The Gospel gives life and meaning to a gracious and graceful living. The GOSPEL brings ABOUT the POWER of God unto human – DELIVERANCE, HEALING, PEACE, TRANQUILITY, SOUNDNESS, VICTORY, TRIUMPH, MERCY, FORGIVENESS, JOY such like the more irrespective.

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with ONE ACCORD GAVE HEED unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and SEEING the MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY” Acts 8:4-8.

For the GOSPEL is not a religion, not a DOCTRINE and more so, not a PROPHECY awaiting to happen to you, nor is it a sectarianism and denominationalism and any traditional dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy to adhere toward. The Gospel is the life, the very life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, in us [1 John 4:4-6; Acts 17:28; 1 John 5:7]. As such, FLEE from every contrary and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus had MADE you WHOLE and FREE in Father God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

There’s therefore, no reason for anyone born of God, to be ashamed of the Gospel of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, because the Gospel is designed of God as an access to all humans salvation who seeks and craves to received the message therein – which is repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ as written:

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

I welcome you today to receive and equally preach the GOSPEL, for therein is the POWER of God to human SALVATION which embodiment includes – Deliverance, Healing, Health, Peace, Safety, Security, enrichment and such like.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“For Christ SENT me not to baptize, but to PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with wisdom of words, lest the CROSS of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that perish FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which are SAVED it is the POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the Jews a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the Greeks FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto them which ARE CALLED, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:17-25.

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the WORLD for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the END come” Matthew 24:14.

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

“Some indeed PREACH CHRIST even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH CHRIST of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, SUPPOSING to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, CHRIST IS PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

If you must PREACH THE GOSPEL, PREACH THE WORD, PREACH CHRIST JESUS, then THE WORD which is CHRIST JESUS, the SAVIOUR and LORD, will bring about human SALVATION – ANSWERS to all human QUEST.

“And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.

Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you in Christ Jesus stead, throw it into the bin –  discard it, I mean seriously, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated. Your EARS and well being is not made for garbage and as trash can for rubbish ADULTERATIONS.

“Some indeed PREACH CHRIST even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH CHRIST of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, SUPPOSING to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, CHRIST IS PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL: GIVES SALVATION UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

The Gospel of Christ Jesus, it’s the POWER of God that brings about the SALVATION of all mankind for today and tomorrow. How relevant it is today than ever before, in the midst of the turbulence, confusion, distrust, breakdown, hunger, chaos, wars, pandemic and such like, that have raven our world today.

And SALVATION in this context is not necessarily only about just being born of God into His Kingdom; but it’s also about matters of life and not limited to the following: PEACE, SOUND MIND, HEALTH, PROSPERITY, HEALING, SECURITY, SAFETY, DELIVERANCE, RESTORATION, STRENGHT, LIVELIHOOD, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP and Such like the MORE.

So, the preaching of the GOSPEL is the preaching THE WORD of God, which is the preaching of Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD, the GOOD NEWS of human redemption. The good news is that man’s debt and eternal judgement it’s everted because Christ Jesus has paid for it by the sacrifice He made to take on the human condemnation – which is the consequence of sin, so that man can be JUSTIFIED before God instead facing the Judgement of condemnations; and thereafter man can then live in FREEDOM from since and it’s effect, in an onward and upward trajectory toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE: IT’S THE POWER & WISDOM OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE: IT’S THE POWER & WISDOM OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!

“For the JEWS require a SIGN, and the GREEKS seek after WISDOM: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the JEWS a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the GREEKS FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto THEM which ARE CALLED, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:22-24.

The GOSPEL is about the CROSS, the CROSS is about CHRIST JESUS, and CHRIST JESUS is the POWER and WISDOM of God, and the POWER and WISDOM of God is about human SALVATION – and NOTHING ELSE and NOTHING MORE; otherwise, it’s human BONDAGES and PERVERSION. The Gospel is to PREACH Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD made manifest in the flesh, that brings about COMPLETE and WHOLESOME REDEMPTION of God to all of mankind that looks up to Him. If you must PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE GOSPEL then ensure you PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE WORD – that is to PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER CHRIST JESUS, then THE WORD which is CHRIST JESUS, the SAVIOUR and LORD, will bring about human SALVATION – the ANSWERS to all human QUEST and CONTROVERSIES.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14.

 

Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you in Christ Jesus stead, throw it into the bin – discard it, I mean seriously, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated. Your EARS and well-being is not made for garbage and as trash can. The Gospel gives life and meaning to a gracious and graceful living. The GOSPEL brings ABOUT the POWER of God unto human – DELIVERANCE, HEALING, PEACE, TRANQUILITY, SOUNDNESS, VICTORY, PROSPERITY, TRIUMPH, MERCY, FORGIVENESS, JOY ETC.

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went everywhere PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with ONE ACCORD GAVE HEED unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and SEEING the MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY” Acts 8:4-8.

The Apostles, who were the forerunner of the Christ Jesus as Disciples, did nothing but PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED the WORD – Christ Jesus as their sole message that transforms all who believes. There wasn’t any form to tolerate the GOSPEL adulteration with DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects spirits. For by the GOSPEL, in two years plus, Apostle was able to reach out to the entire Asia of his days, changing and transforming lives toward God and His Christ and not to themselves or religion or denomination as we see today. Acts 19:10-12.

For the GOSPEL is not a RELIGION, not a DOCTRINE, not a DENOMINATION and more so, not a PROPHECY awaiting to happen to you, nor is it a TRADITIONAL or RELIGIOUS dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy to adhere toward. The Gospel is the life, the very life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, in us. 1 John 4:4-6; Acts 17:28; 1 John 5:7. As such, FLEE from every contrary and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus had MADE you WHOLE and FREE in Father God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

And the GOSPEL have been PREACHED to Abraham concerning you by God for over 400 years long before the law came into effect and more so before the days of kings and prophets came into operation. Thus indicating the power and wisdom of God in redemption concerning you in every respect as its written:

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” Genesis 12:1-3.

It’s time to ensure you live by the GOSPEL and not by religion, doctrine, denomination creeds and bye-laws, traditional dogmas and sentiments. For the GOSPEL is not in fragmentation. It’s whole, complete and total embraces all about our REDEMPTION ACTS and PROCESSES, and our REDEMPTION RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES. And there’s only one GOSPEL of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:27; 1 Thessalonians 3:2; 1 Corinthians 1:30) and not in any other in fragments as many do today by depicting themselves as being the MINISTER of various sects as having the MINISTRY of – SANCTIFICATION, HOLINESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS, FAITH, JUSTIFICATION, DELIVERANCE, PROSPERITY and such like. There’s no one single place in the new creation EPISTLES where the Apostle’s fragmented the Gospel into small unit ministry by any form of DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects settings and fragmentations of the GOSPEL of Christ Jesus.

Therefore, PREACH the GOSPEL! TEACH the GOSPEL!! and MINISTER the GOSPEL!!! Do this in wholeness with none of the fragment and fragmentations that’s depict as GOSPEL when indeed it leads to bondages by the man-made DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL inclination as ministry and calling. Let Christ only be the GOSPEL – Philippians 1:15-18.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH READING & PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you PUBLICKLY, and from HOUSE TO HOUSE, 21 testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“For Christ SENT me not to baptize, but to PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with wisdom of words, lest the CROSS of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that perish FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which are SAVED it is the POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the Jews a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the Greeks FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto them which ARE CALLED, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:17-24.

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the WORLD for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the END come” Matthew 24:14.

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

“Some indeed PREACH CHRIST even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH CHRIST of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, SUPPOSING to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, CHRIST IS PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER GOSPEL: 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there be some that TROUBLE you, and would PERVERT the GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though WE, or an ANGEL from heaven, PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If ANY man PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed” Galatians 1:6-9.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS – THE WORK OF GRACE

By Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS – THE WORK OF GRACE: ASHAMED OR UNASHAMED!

Are you ASHAMED of the Gospel of Christ? When last where you EMBOLDENED to make your FAITH by the Gospel of Christ KNOWN to all ABOUT you. Are you still hiding from public view as Christ Disciple? Are you a hidden Believer of the FAITH of God in Christ Jesus stead? Are you not willing to make known your RESOLVED to be an AMBASSADOR of and for Christ Jesus? Which are you? ASHAMED or UNASHAMED!

You need not to be ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ for its the ENABLING POWER (CAPACITY, ABILITY) of God for human DIGNITY to be ACTUALISED in His divine PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.

For me, in all situations, I am PROUDLY and awesomely EMBOLDENED to be Christ Jesus DISCIPLE and AMBASSADOR by the GOSPEL. I therefore encourage you today to be graciously and gracefully emboldened in all situations to be UNASHAMED of who you are in God, because there are hopes of many that can be RECONCILED to God through your essence in Him in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For THE GRACE of God has appeared that OFFERS salvation to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say ‘NO’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to LIVE self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this PRESENT age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to REDEEM us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone DESPISE you” Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“For God hath not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND. 8 Be not thou therefore ASHAMED of the TESTIMONY of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou PARTAKER of the AFFLICTIONS OF THE GOSPEL according to the power of God; 9 who hath SAVED us, and CALLED us with an HOLY CALLING, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, 10 but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the GOSPEL: 11 whereunto I am appointed a PREACHER, and an APOSTLE, and a TEACHER of the Gentiles. 12 For the which cause I also SUFFER these things: NEVERTHELESS I AM NOT ASHAMED: for I know WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED, and am PERSUADED that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day” 2 Timothy 1:7-12.

“But let none of you SUFFER as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters. 16 Yet if any man SUFFER as a CHRISTIAN, let him not be ASHAMED; but let him GLORIFY God on this behalf. 17 For the time is come that JUDGMENT must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that OBEY not the GOSPEL of God?” 1 Peter 4:15-17.

“For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the MOUTH confession is MADE unto SALVATION. 11 For the scripture saith, WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHALL NOT BE ASHAMED. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:10-13.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE (CREATION): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath RECONCILED us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of RECONCILIATION; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, RECONCILING the world unto himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye RECONCILED to God. 21 For he hath MADE him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be MADE the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
