2Co 5:13
For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.
2Co 5:14 For the
love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that
one died for all, therefore all died;
2Co 5:15 and
He died for all, so that
they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
2Co 5:16 Therefore
from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer.
2Co 5:17
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
2Co 5:18 Now
all these things are from God,
who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation,
2Co 5:19 namely, that
God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
2Co 5:20 Therefore,
we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God were making an appeal through us;
we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
2Co 5:21
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
