(Bible verses) 2 Corinthians 5:11-21
According to Isaiah 18:2 (KJV), the word ‘ambassadors’ was used to indicate ‘messengers’ who were responsible for a specific mission of delivering a message from his homeland to a foreign nation where he was sent.
Therefore, the mission of an ambassador begins with the duty as a messenger who should declare to those who have not reconciled yet so that they may restore relationships with God. This is the ministry of reconciliation which is described in 2 Corinthians 5:18-20.
God is grieved over those who stubbornly reject His offer to reconcile. He weeps over their sorrowful future, shouting out, “Who else can help me save these people? Please say something to them. Please let them hear my message and get out of the pit of eternal deaths.” The ambassador of reconciliation is those who mourn with His sorrows.
Blessed are those who mourn with His sorrows. (Matt 5:4)
