2 Corinthians 5:18-6:3
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation;(A) 19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself,[a] not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us.(B) 20 So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ: be reconciled to God.(C) 21 For our sake God made the one who knew no sin to be sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.(D)
6 As we work together with him,[b] we entreat you also not to accept the grace of God in vain.(E) 2 For he says,
“At an acceptable time I have listened to you,
and on a day of salvation I have helped you.”
Look, now is the acceptable time; look, now is the day of salvation!(F) 3 We are putting no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,(G)
