묵상질문

The Ministry of Reconciliation
화목하게 하는 직분

Paul confesses that he was controlled by the love of Christ in order to carry out the ministry of reconciliation.
바울은 자신이 그리스도의 강권하시는 사랑에 붙들려 화목하게 하는 직분을 수행하고 있다고 고백합니다.

Thinking & Understanding
In Jesus Christ‘s love, Paul experienced the power of His love, and because of this he was able to carry out his ministry for the glory of God and the benefit of the Corinthian church. He did this truthfully and faithfully, and not for his own benefit (vv. 13-15).
Paul says that because of the sacrifice of Jesus, God reconciled with those who were once enemies. Thus, Christians, who have been reconciled with God by coming to God through the cross of Jesus, must also spread the gospel of the cross so that others can be reconciled with God as well (vv. 16-20).
예수 그리스도의 사랑 안에서 그 사랑의 강권함을 경험하고 있던 바울은 자신의 이익을 위하지 않고, 오직 하나님과 고린도 성도들의 유익을 위해 정직하고 성실하게 사역할 수 있었습니다(13-15절).
바울은 하나님께서 예수님의 희생을 통해 당신의 원수였던 사람들과 화해하셨기 때문에 이제 예수 그리스도의 십자가를 통해 하나님께 나온 성도들은 하나님과 화목할 뿐 아니라 다른 사람들도 하나님과 화목할 수 있도록 이 십자가의 복음을 전해야 한다고 강조합니다(16-20절).

What Lesson is God Teaching Me?
Like Paul, people who are held captive by the love of Jesus Christ no longer live for themselves, but obey the command to live for Christ. Listen to what His love is telling you to do today. Then obey Christ as His love motivates you.
바울처럼 예수 그리스도의 사랑에 단단히 붙잡힌 자들은 이제 더는 자기 자신을 위해 살지 않고 그리스도를 위해 살라는 요구에 순종할 것입니다. 이 사랑이 오늘 내게 무엇을 하도록 다그치고 있는지 귀를 기울이십시오. 그리고 그 사랑이 강권하시는 대로 순종하십시오.

Tip 1
5:14–15 one has died for all, therefore all have died. By Christ’s death, the death penalty for sin (see Ge 2:17) has been paid for all those who trust in him (see Ro 3:21–26; 5:6–8; 1Co 15:3; Ga 3:13), and God counts their old life as ended, thus freeing them from any future penal claims.

Tip 2
5:17 new creation. The redemption of a people, effected by the power of the Spirit and the death of Christ, is the beginning of the new creation that was destined to come amid this evil age. This new creation is also the beginning of Israel’s final restoration from God’s judgment in the exile.

기도

Lord, help me to carry out the ministry of reconciliation as a person who has received the love of Jesus and has been reconciled with God.
