"The Name Royal Ambassadors"
Where did we get the name "Royal Ambassadors"? II Corinthians 5:17-20 describes the purpose of Royal Ambassadors. While the RA motto is found in verse 20, the other verses sum up Paul's declaration of why we need to be ambassadors for christ. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 18 All is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therfore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. II Corinthians 5:17-20
