Ambassadors for Christ and Ministers of Reconciliation

2 Corinthians 5:20 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. ​2 Corinthians 5:21 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. ​

Contrary to popular opinion, ( Denominational )
our commission is NOT to be found in the four Gospels,Matthew Mark Luke and John,but in the Second letter of the Apostle Paul to the Corinthians.
We are the "NEW CREATURE" and so we are Ambassadors FOR Christ and we have received the word and ministry of reconciliation to announce it to a world that is otherwise headed to the lake of fire.
There is hope! The Lord is offering the free gift of Salvation to anyone who believes and receives the glorious gospel of Grace.
The Apostle Paul was called and commissioned by the Risen Glorified Lord Jesus Christ with the ministry of preaching the Gospel of grace. 
You can read for yourself:
​
​Acts 20:24 
But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

THIS IS THE NEW COMMISSION GIVEN TO THE BODY OF CHRIST

2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 
2 Corinthians 5:2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: 
2 Corinthians 5:3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 
2 Corinthians 5:4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. 
2 Corinthians 5:5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. 
2 Corinthians 5:6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) 
2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 
2 Corinthians 5:9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 
2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 
2 Corinthians 5:11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. 
2 Corinthians 5:12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart. 
2 Corinthians 5:13 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. 
2 Corinthians 5:14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: 
2 Corinthians 5:15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 
2 Corinthians 5:16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. 
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
 
2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 
2 Corinthians 5:19 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. 
2 Corinthians 5:20 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. 
2 Corinthians 5:21 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.

Colossians 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
Colossians 1:21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
Colossians 1:22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
Colossians 1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
