2 Corinthians 5:18 Reconciliation and Ministry

Posted on Posted in Devotions Tagged with , ,

2 Corinthians 5:18 (KJV) And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

Our redemption is of God. By His love, He reached out to us and saved us through His Son Jesus Christ. It is only by Jesus Christ that reconciliation can be made between man broken by sin and a holy God who judges sin according to His law.

To reconcile is to change from enmity to friendship. Once estranged from God but now made nigh through Jesus Christ. What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and grieves to bear!

A precious ministry it is to bring comfort to struggling and lost souls to help them find their bearing in life by introducing them to Jesus Christ. Amen.
