An Ambassador in God's Orchestra of Joy

An Ambassador is an official and accredited representative of their own sovereign state to another place or country. The Ambassador speaks not for themselves but represents the ideals, thoughts and actions of the one who sent them and with their authority. All Christians, as Disciples of Jesus Christ, are Ambassadors for Jesus Christ into the world in which we live. Therefore throughout this book, we use both words, Ambassador and Disciple, in relation to the Christian. As Ambassadors for Jesus Christ, we are to be His representatives here on earth. We are His Church, which is an Orchestra of Joy. The Christian Ambassador has a joyous message to present to people about how people can be reconciled with God. A message to all people, of all nations, of all time, without favouritism or corruption. As Christian Ambassadors, we are sent by our Lord Jesus Christ, into the world, in order to live our lives for Him and Him alone. Inside this book, we look at 6 main characteristics of the life of the Christian Ambassador: 1. The Ambassador's Identification 2. The Ambassador's Message 3. The Ambassador's New Life 4. The Ambassador's Serving Life 5. The Ambassador's Devotional Life 6. The Ambassador's Uncompromising Life The Disciple of Jesus Christ, the Christian, is God's Ambassador, as exhorted by the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 5:20-21: 20 We are therefore Christ's Ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: be reconciled to God. 21 God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
