Through our words and deeds
The apostle Paul,
“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. 2 Corinthians5:18-20
Are you an ambassador?
The Oxford dictionary defines an ambassador as
“diplomat sent by a state as its permanent representative in a foreign country. A representative or promoter of a specified activity.”
As Christians we are Christ’s ambassadors. We are here on earth to promote the Kingdom of God. That is the primary purpose of a Christian. It is through our words and deeds that people will see God.
As part of those duties for God we may be called to feed the poor, heal the sick, among other things. All of these activities should be done in the name of Christ Jesus. Making sure that God gets the glory for our actions.
Are you doing this?
Please think about it.
