Simply put, we are both "ambassadors" of the Gospel, passively and actively. 1) Since we are "new creatures" in Christ, our lives will (should) reflect that change and thus gain the attention of some. And 2) we are 'evangelists' of the Gospel to those who are by birth, enemies of God and need to be reconciled to God through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But also, this accomplished reconciliation applies continually to believers who can avail the forgiveness of confessed sins throughout life.
