Consciousness – 2 Corinthians 5 How did Paul view his work? What motivated him in his work? “Knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men. ” (11) “The love of Christ compels us… He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves. ” (14 -15) “We (16) regard no one according to the flesh. ”
Consciousness – 2 Corinthians 5 “Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. ” (18 -19) “Therefore we are ambassadors of Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ: Be reconciled to God!” (20)
