Ambassadors - We represent Christ.

Ambassadors - We represent Christ. 

Ezekiel 18:31-32 


31 Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, O house of Israel? 


32 For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign LORD. Repent and live!


Proverbs 1:22-33 


22“How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?


23 If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you.


24 But since you rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand,


25 since you ignored all my advice and would not accept my rebuke,


26 I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you—


27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you.


28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me.


29 Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD,


30 since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke,


31 they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.

ls will destroy them;

33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.”


Job 22:21 


“Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you.


1 Thessalonians 4:8 


Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.


1 Corinthians 4:4-5 


4 My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. 


5 Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.
