18 But all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Christ and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.
19 For God indeed was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing to them their sins. And he hath placed in us the word of reconciliation.
20 For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, God as it were exhorting by us, for Christ, we beseech you, be reconciled to God.
21 Him, who knew no sin, he hath made sin for us: that we might be made the justice of God in him.
