2^nd Corinthians 5:20: And What it Means to All People!!

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins April 2, 2021

        Praise the Lord Saints!!  Praise the Lord!!  How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I would like to say that we are ambassadors for Christ.  According to 2^nd Corinthians 5:20 says: Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be you reconciled to God.  I am an ambassador for Christ Jesus.  I want to inform all of you that I am also a Child of God.

 I know that this essay is professing my love for Jesus Christ.  I know that I have come a very long way in my personal life.  I know that I have been a drug user as well as a gang member before.  From September 1, 1979 until January 15, 1990.  I used to affiliate myself with gang members.  Furthermore, I want to mention that I started drinking alcohol at the age of 7.  My mother and her husband were alcoholics.  I became an alcoholic actually at birth.  I do recall sweating a whole lot.  I also used to shiver inside of the bed.  I used to have cold spells while I was sleeping.

In Addition, I have joined gangs at an early age.  I became a gang member at the age of 9.  Although my grandmothers used to shield me from gang violence.  Currently, I am an ambassador for Christ because I have rededicated my life back to Jesus Christ on February 15, 2015.  I have dedicated my life to Him because I have taken things seriously.  I know that I read the Bible every single day of the week.

        Also, I had a whole lot of fun while living inside of my grandmother’s house.  My two grandmothers are responsible for taking me to church.  They are responsible for praying for me as well.  My grandmothers and grandfathers used to walk me to school.  This is because my so-called friends used to beat me up all of the time.  Right now, I am getting ready to focus on the lesson.  What is the role of an ambassador of Christ?  Ambassadors also have great responsibilities for the Kingdom in order to rescue people from acts of warfare. As ambassadors of Christ, we take commands well and are very responsible. Since we are acting on behalf of the King we represent, we must live in Christlike holiness and power while on the earth.  What is a church Ambassador?

A Church Ambassador takes their personal heart and passion for the life-affirming work of New Life and shares it with their congregation and works to build and establish an intentional partnership between the two. A Church Ambassador allows us [the church] to know what is going on locally at a Care Center of the Church.

        Further, I want to say that an ambassador conducts herself or himself like Jesus Christ.  Ambassadors do not use any vulgarity whatsoever.  An Ambassador is a person who lives Christ-like manner.  Ambassadors are responsible for the affairs of Jesus Christ.  Ambassadors read the Bible everyday of the week.  Ambassadors always listen to music that is design to edify Jesus Christ as well as the Church.  Ambassadors raise their children according to Church rules.  Ambassadors are well groomed and dressed. 

Finally, I want to say that I am an ambassador who really needs work.  I am considered as a Work in Progress.  This means that my whole attitude must change for the better.  This is because a close friend of mine informed me that I have to conduct myself like a Kingdom Man.  A Kingdom Man is a God-Fearing Man.  A Kingdom man is an ambassador for Jesus Christ.
