All Things New | Week 7: A Reconciling, Centered-Set Community

Preacher : Kathy Maskell

2 Corinthians 5:14-20
14  For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and
therefore all died.  15  And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for
themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.
16  So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once
regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.  17  Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the
new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!  18  All this is from God, who
reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:  19  that
God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against
them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.  20  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.
