God is not a man,

so he does not lie.

He is not human, 

so he does not change his mind.

Has he ever spoken and failed to act?

Has he ever promised and not carried it through?

Numbers 23:19

You know the generous grace 

of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Though he was rich,

yet for your sakes he became poor,

so that by his poverty

he could make you rich. 

2 Corinthians 8:9

So we are Christ’s ambassadors;

God is making his appeal through us.

We speak for Christ when we plead,

“Come back to God!”

2 Corinthians 5:20

He died for everyone

so that those who receive his new life

will no longer live for themselves.

Instead,

they will live for Christ,

who died and was raised for them.

This means that anyone who belongs to Christ

has become a new person.

The old life is gone;

a new life has begun!

2 Corinthians 5:15, 17

For God says,

“At just the right time,

I heard you.

On the day of salvation,

I helped you.”

Indeed,

the “right time” is now.

Today is the day of salvation. 

2 Corinthians 6:2
