What did God give us after reconciling us to Himself?

After reconciling us to Himself through Jesus Christ, God did not stop there; He gave believers the ministry of reconciliation. This ministry flows from being made new creations in Christ, with old things passed away and all things become new.

Les teaches from 2 Corinthians 5 that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation; old things are passed away, and all things become new as a result of the salvation experience and all God has done on our behalf. Verse 18 says all things are of God, who reconciled us to Himself by Jesus Christ, but He did not stop there. After reconciling us, He turned around and gave us the ministry of reconciliation. This fits the context of our ambassadorship and position as citizens of Heaven living here on earth.
