2 Corinthians 1:1-2 - Who we are, Who we belong to, and What we have been given.

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC)

As we begin our journey through 2 Corinthians, we are invited to reflect deeply on three foundational truths: who we are, who we belong to, and what we have been given. Paul’s introduction to this letter is not just a formality; it is a profound reminder of the identity, calling, and resources that define the Christian life and the church community. Paul, once a persecutor of the church, is now an apostle by the will of God, not by human appointment or affirmation. His authority and mission are rooted in a radical encounter with the risen Christ, which transformed his life and set him apart as a messenger of the gospel. This calling is not about personal status or recognition, but about faithfully representing Christ, even in the face of suffering and misunderstanding.
