II Corinthians 5:18  And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
 
2nd in a series on II Corinthians 5:17-21
 
After becoming a new creation in Christ (v 17) , and having been reconciled to God by His sacrifice on the cross,  it is the  duty and ministry of each of us to help others in being reconciled to God.
 
All things are of God: All things were created by Him, for His glory and purpose. When we recognize His rule and authority, we realize that everything is of, for and by Him. There is no good thing that is not ordained by Him ( John 3:27; I Corinthians 1:30, 8:6;  Colossians 1:16-17; James 1:17).
 
who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ: - Reconciliation usually involves mediation of a dispute between parties. In the  case of reconciliation between us and God,  it is the case of we as offenders being reconciled to a just and perfect God. The unique thing about our reconciliation to God is that the offended party provided the means of reconciliation, namely the blood  of Jesus (Colossians 1:20).
 
and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation:  We preach that reconciliation begins with recognition of our present sinful condition . This will bring about repentance, which produces reformation, obedience and submission to God's word and God's will.
 
Acts 20:21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

  John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
 
Humor
 
A lady at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly.
 
When inquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM "thingy".
