Ambassador

I am an ambassador for a very important person; a King. My job is to speak on behalf of the King, acting as His representative to others. I mostly try to reach those who are at war with the King. Using peaceful peaceful negotiations, my goal is reconciliation.

See, everyone has rebelled from the King by going their own selfish way. The Good News is that the King does not desire conflict but peace, not judgment but forgiveness. He is offering a full pardon to anyone who will take it.

My responsibility is to tell you about this free gift and how to accept it. The way to recieve it is to simply put your faith in His Son who bore the punishment you deserved. When you do this the King turns you into a new person. It's up to you to either accept or reject this offer. Those that recieve it won't be judged but those who reject it have been judged already.

The next step is yours.

2 Corinthians 5:17-21 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.  God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

John 3:16-20 - For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
