2Corinthians:5:18-21
tcent@2Corinthians:5:18 @ All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;
tcent@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
tcent@2Corinthians:5:20 @ We are therefore ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making his appeal through us. We beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
tcent@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
