与人和好的神
因着罪，我们人类陷入悖逆。我们与上帝，与我们自己，与我们的邻居，与上帝创造的世界争战。靠我们自己，我们永远不会归向神。我们不能改变自己的心。没有神，我们甚至无法意识到我们已经陷在罪的痛苦中。
救赎不是人类的主动行为。乃是神主动使我们与祂和好。神如此爱我们，祂差祂的儿子亲自来拯救我们。是无罪者寻找有罪者。耶稣基督是和好的使者。现在我们被祂寻见，可以藉着基督归向神了。
耶稣是唯一通往神的路。祂是通往救恩的门。祂是使我们与天父和好的中保。神为要使我们与祂和好，就定意不再记念我们的过犯，而将其归在耶稣基督的身上。
神的儿子在十字架上还清了我们所欠的债，把我们完全释放了。神却把基督完全的义都归给了我们，叫我们不再背负被定罪的重担。
神啊，你为我们成就了何等大的救恩。只有基督作成的工才能使我们称义。是你将祂的义归给了我们。感谢你，父神！奉耶稣的名祷告，阿们。
哥林多后书5:16-21
16所以，我们从今以后，不凭着外貌认人了。虽然凭着外貌认过基督，如今却不再这样认他了。
17若有人在基督里，他就是新造的人，旧事已过，都变成新的了。
18一切都是出于神，他藉着基督使我们与他和好，又将劝人与他和好的职分赐给我们。
19这就是神在基督里叫世人与自己和好，不将他们的过犯归到他们身上，并且将这和好的道理托付了我们。
20所以，我们做基督的使者，就好像神藉我们劝你们一般，我们替基督求你们与神和好。
21神使那无罪的替我们成为罪，好叫我们在他里面成为神的义。
The God Of Reconciliation
"All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ. . . ." - 2 Corinthians 5:18
Because of sin, we human beings are in rebellion. We are at war with God, with ourselves, with our neighbors, and with God's creation. By ourselves, we would never return to God. We cannot change our own heart. Without God, we don't even realize that we are mired and stuck and lost in the misery of sin.
Salvation is not a human initiative. God took the initiative to reconcile us to himself. God loves us so much that he sent his Son to save us. The innocent seeks the guilty. The agent of reconciliation is Jesus Christ. And now through Christ we can turn to God.
Jesus is the one and only way to God. He is the door, the gateway, to salvation. He is the mediator who reconciles us to the Father. To reconcile us to himself, God did not keep our transgressions on our account. Instead, he laid them on Jesus Christ.
On the cross the Son of God paid in full the debt that was against us and completely set us free. And God credited us with the perfect righteousness of Christ so that no condemnation can weigh on us any longer.
What a great salvation you have accomplished for us, O God! Only the finished work of Christ could justify us. And you credited his righteousness to our account. Thank you, Father. In Jesus, Amen.
