2 Corinthians 5:11-211. The experience of reconciliation, v.18* Colossians 2:6-152. The ministry of reconciliation, v. 183. The message of reconciliation, v. 19“Redemption is much more than simply saving souls. It will ultimately entail the complete healing of creation, including social justice, the reunification of all humanity, and the end of physical decay and death. But even now it means bringing the health and coherence of Christ’s lordship back into every aspect of human life. The Christian church is to be a new society in which the world can see exhibited what family, business practices, race relations and all of life can be under the kingship of Jesus Christ.”-Tim Keller
