                       Reconcile God

​

​

We are therefore

Christ's ambassadors,

as though God were making

his appeal through us.

We implore you on Christ's behalf:

Be reconciled to God.

2 Corinthians 5:20

Apostle Paul and his mission team

implore young Christians in

Corinthian Church

as God's ambassadors;

they are appealing as God's.

Be reconciled with God.

Meaning believe in Jesus and

grow according to his character.

They implore it on God's behalf.

The 2 Corinthians is the Apostle Paul's second letter to the 

Corinthian Churches. Letter is the most intimate and personal.

Two thousand years ago, the Corinth city in Greece reminds

us today's New York city. The Corinth seaboard city was

then a center of trade, merchandize, wealth and luxury.

Also there was the Venus temple which led people not only

to moral deterioration but also sexual disaster.

The original location of Humanism, which against Creator God

and focus on human, the Corinth city in Greece lay in

spiritually formless, empty and darkness.

Here by God's mercy small lights began to shine. They were the

Lord Jesus' house Churches. They belong to the low social class.

Envious and jealous devil attempted to destroy God's

House Churches by questioning Paul's integrity and Apostleship.

And it caused to delay and complicate the promised loving

collection as well for the poverty stricken Jerusalem church.  

It was the process of the life giving Gospel to us, and it

continues so. How beautiful are the feet those who

bring good news !
