2 Corinthians 5:20 “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.”
When a person becomes a believer their lives are changed. As one reads the concluding verses of 2 Corinthians 5 one will read of the wonderful, almost unbelievable changes that happen to the new Christian.  These changes include being reconciled to God and made a new person.  It included receiving the righteousness of Christ.  And we read of one of the most marvelous changes in which God now views us as ambassadors for Christ. Â
Being an ambassador means one is a representative.  If you are a Christian, you now represent Christ in this world and are to bring His message of reconciliation to them!
Please take a moment and consider what a change this is!  Recall what you were before becoming a believer. In Ephesians 2:19 we are called “strangers and aliens.” In Romans 5:10 we are called “enemies.” In Colossians 1:21, we are “alienated” from God.
Yet here in 2 Corinthians 5:20, we are called ambassadors for Christ.  We went from being in rebellion against God to being a representative of God. That friends, is a change!!!  I was an alien from God and now I am an Ambassador of God.  I am Ambassador Carson.  You are Ambassador (your first and last name)!! Â
Ambassador, you are called to represent Christ to a lost world.  You represent Christ to the lost working next to you and to those living next to you. You are to represent Christ to friends, family members, and even enemies!  Plead with them to be reconciled to God by sharing the glorious gospel! Â
As believers, we are a new person with a new position and now with a new purpose.
Continue Strong representing Christ to the nations,
And remember to DATE the Word
