the ministry of reconciliation
DESCRIPTION
Our God is the God of reconciliation. He has made reconciliation possible for us through His Son’s death. However, Paul understood his role that God had given him the ministry of reconciliation that is the responsibility of persuading the lost to return to Christ, being careful of his own life not being an obstacle to those who return and having a wide open heart. This ministry obviously extends also to those in Christ who have turned away helping them to reconcile with God. This ministry is given to us also and Paul provides a wonderful example for us to learn from.TRANSCRIPT

Synopsis: Our God is the God of reconciliation. He has made reconciliation possible for us through His Son’s death. However, Paul understood his role that God had given him the ministry of reconciliation that is the responsibility of persuading the lost to return to Christ, being careful of his own life not being an obstacle to those who return and having a wide open heart. This ministry obviously extends also to those in Christ who have turned away helping them to reconcile with God. This ministry is given to us also and Paul provides a wonderful example for us to learn from.
