Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18
Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself
through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that
is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their
trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20
Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading
through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might
become the righteousness of God in Him.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21
17 اذا ان كان احد في المسيح فهو خليقة جديدة.الاشياء
العتيقة قد مضت.هوذا الكل قد صار جديدا.
18 ولكن الكل من الله الذي صالحنا لنفسه بيسوع المسيح
واعطانا خدمة المصالحة
19 اي ان الله كان في المسيح مصالحا العالم لنفسه غير
حاسب لهم خطاياهم وواضعا فينا كلمة المصالحة.
20 اذا نسعى كسفراء عن المسيح كأن الله يعظ بنا.نطلب عن
المسيح تصالحوا مع الله.
21 لانه جعل الذي لم يعرف خطية خطية لاجلنا لنصير نحن
بر الله فيه .
To reconcile is to exchange enmity for friendship,
and it usually requires that the cause of enmity or hostility be removed. The
cause of hostility between God and man was removed by Jesus taking on the sins
of the world. It is now possible for us to have a
personal relationship with God. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, Jesus’ blood makes it possible for God to
change our status from being an enemy of God back into a right relationship with
Him. Christ’s blood is the bridge, the peace offering that reconciles us to
God. We are given a ministry of reconciliation to help people come to Christ
and be reconciled to God and to help people reconcile amongst themselves and
live in the love of Christ.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer
for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You Lord that my DNA reveals that I as a follower of Your Son Jesus am reconciled to You God through the atoning death of Jesus on The Cross on my behalf. Thank You God that through Jesus, I can have a personal relationship with You God. My heavenly Father, strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that I can become an ambassador for Christ and bring the message of reconciliation to all, for it is Your desire that all people be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:4 Abba Father, thank You that Your deep steadfast love for me endures forever. Thank You Father for Your abundant blessings in my life, and for the riches of Your grace upon my life. In the Holy Name of Jesus, I pray. To Jesus be the glory, the power, and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
