Ambassadors for Jesus

What does it mean to be an ambassador for Jesus? It just means carrying His message with us into the world, everywhere we go—sharing what He has done for us.

It’s summed up for us so perfectly in this passage— 2 Corinthians 5:19-20. Where it says…

God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has now committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, it’s as though God were making his appeal through us.

Why did Jesus come?

He came to save us from the consequences of our wrong actions. He came to bring us into a close relationship with God.

We can take this truth into the world by speaking openly about who we are: people who have been restored by God.

Remember, there is always hope with God.

2 Corinthians 5:19-20

“For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, ‘Come back to God!’”
