2 Cor. 6:1-2 (NLT)
As God's partners, we beg you not to reject this marvelous message of God's great kindness.(KJV "that ye receive not the grace of God in vain") For God says,
"At just the right time, I heard you.
On the day of salvation, I helped you."
Indeed, God is ready to help you right now. Today is the day of salvation.
(KJV "behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
How could the Corinthian believers toss aside God’s message (“receive God’s grace in vain”)? Perhaps they were doubting Paul and his words, confused by the false teachers who taught a different message. The people heard God’s message, but did not let it affect what they said and did. How often does God’s message reach you in vain?
God offers salvation to all people. Many people put off a decision for Christ, thinking that there will be a better time—but they could easily miss their opportunity altogether. There is no time like the present to receive God’s forgiveness. Don’t let anything hold you back from coming to Christ.
