rsv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ Here indeed we groan, and long to put on our heavenly dwelling,
rsv@2Corinthians:5:3 @ so that by putting it on we may not be found naked.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are still in this tent, we sigh with anxiety; not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always of good courage; we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,
rsv@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for we walk by faith, not by sight.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive good or evil, according to what he has done in the body.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to be proud of us, so that you may be able to answer those who pride themselves on a man's position and not on his heart.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ controls us, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And he died for all, that those who live might live no longer for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:16 @ From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once regarded Christ from a human point of view, we regard him thus no longer.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;
rsv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
rsv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
