61. And what verse just happens to show up in the chapter for this week...

... none other than, 2 Corinthians 5:18-19

1And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

Too funny.
