ACC ~ 2 Corinthians 5 v19
NOT COUNTING OUR TRESPASSES. AMBROSIASTER: God was in Christ, that is to say, the Father was in the Son, reconciling the world to himself, not counting their sins against them. Creation sinned against God and did not repent, so God, who did not want his work to perish, sent his Son in order to preach through him the forgiveness of sins and thus reconcile them to himself. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.
IN CHRIST. CHRYSOSTOM: Can you see how great God’s love is for us? Who was the offended party? He was. Who took the first steps toward reconciliation? He did. Some will say that he sent the Son in his place, but this is a misunderstanding. Christ did not come apart from the Father who sent him. They were both involved together in the work of reconciliation. HOMILIES ON THE EPISTLES OF PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS 11.5.
