Favorite Bible Passage:
The Old and New Testaments! However, a passage that has
deep personal meaning to me is 2Corinthians 5:18-20: 2 Cor 5:18-20:
"Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ
and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ
reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them,
and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are
ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg
you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God." NASU

toward and/or refuse to be reconciled with one another.
