2 Corinthians 2:<strong>17</strong> … As those sent from God<br />
(03/27/20<strong>17</strong>)<br />
“In Christ we speak as persons of sincerity;<br />
as those sent from God and standing in His presence.”<br />
~ Paul (2 Corinthians 2:<strong>17</strong>)<br />
Actually, the vast majority of the time those who are truly “in Christ” are<br />
serving others and not speaking at all … That having been said, it is possible <strong>to</strong><br />
“speak in Christ” as well – whenever we encourage those in despair or<br />
compliment those in depression; whenever we speak words of Kindness <strong>to</strong><br />
strangers or words of Forgiveness <strong>to</strong> enemies … With sincere Love is the only<br />
way <strong>to</strong> speak as those sent from a God of perfect Love (Matthew 5:48), and with<br />
sincere Love is the only way <strong>to</strong> speak as those who are standing in God‟s presence<br />
– as those choosing <strong>to</strong> act as humble embodiments thereof (John 14:20).<br />
Amen ... Let it be so.<br />
