在本期视频中，魏泰德牧师谈到关于成为基督的使者。

在哥林多后书5章，保罗谈论关于我们是基督的跟随者，我们期待着祂的复临。上帝呼召我们藉着祂的能力，每日与祂相连来代表祂。

在这章的17节说：“若有人在基督里，他就是新造的人，旧事已过，变成新的了。”事实上，当你成为基督的使者，你就是新造的人。

18节保罗继续说：“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节中，他继续说：“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。”基督托付我们去宣扬祂的公义、圣所的信息、健康的信息、三天使的信息和祂的复临。

上帝正在此时呼召我们成为祂事工的一份子。“所以，我们作基督的使者，就好像 神藉我们劝你们一般。我们替基督求你们与 神和好。”

 “ 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。”

再者，“就特别的意义而言，基督复临安息日会的人被安置在世上，乃是作守望者和擎光者。”（《教会证言》卷九，19页）

“基督复临安息日会是上帝所拣选的特别子民，与世人有分别。祂用真理之斧把他们从世界的石矿中凿出，使他们与祂联合。祂使他们作祂的代表，并在救恩最后的工作中召他们作祂的使者。”（《教会证言》卷七，138页）

当我们成为上帝的使者向前进时，愿上帝赐福我们！

In this video, Pastor Ted talks about being ambassadors for Christ.

In 2 Corinthians 5, Apostle Paul talks about what we are as followers of Jesus. And as we look forward to His second coming, God is calling us to represent Him through His power and by connecting with Him daily.

Verse 17 of that chapter says, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (NKJV). Indeed, when you become an ambassador for Christ, you are a new creature.

Continuing in verse 18, Apostle Paul says, “Now all things are of God, Who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation” (NKJV).

In verse 19, he goes on, “that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation” (NKJV).

We need ambassadors of reconciliation who would unite people in the mission Christ has entrusted us of proclaiming His righteousness, sanctuary message, health message, three angels’ messages, and second coming.

The time is now. God is calling us to be part of His mission. “Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God” (2 Corinthians 5:20, NKJV).

“For He made Him Who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (verse 21, NKJV).

Also, “in a special sense, Seventh-day Adventists have been set in the world as watchmen and lightbearers” (Testimonies for the Church, volume 9, page 19).

We have been “chosen by God as a peculiar people separate from the world. By the great cleaver of truth, He has cut them out from the quarry of the world and brought them into connection with Himself. He has made them His representatives and has called them to be ambassadors for Him in the last work of salvation” (Testimonies for the Church, volume 7, page 138).

May God bless us as we go forward as ambassadors for Christ!
