2Corinthians:5:1 @
For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved ,
we have a building from God ,
a house not made with hands ,
eternal ,
in the heavens .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:2 @
For verily in this we groan ,
longing to be clothed upon with our habitation which is from heaven :
asv @
2Corinthians:5:3 @
if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:4 @
For indeed we that are in this tabernacle do groan ,
being burdened ;
not for that we would be unclothed ,
but that we would be clothed upon ,
that what is mortal may be swallowed up of life .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:5 @
Now he that wrought us for this very thing is God ,
who gave unto us the earnest of the Spirit .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:6 @
Being therefore always of good courage ,
and knowing that ,
whilst we are at home in the body ,
we are absent from the Lord
asv @
2Corinthians:5:7 @(
for we walk by faith ,
not by sight );
asv @
2Corinthians:5:8 @
we are of good courage ,
I say ,
and are willing rather to be absent from the body ,
and to be at home with the Lord .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:9 @
Wherefore also we make it our aim ,
whether at home or absent ,
to be well-pleasing unto him .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:10 @
For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ ;
that each one may receive the things done in the body ,
according to what he hath done ,
whether it be good or bad .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:11 @
Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord ,
we persuade men ,
but we are made manifest unto God ;
and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:12 @
We are not again commending ourselves unto you ,
but speak as giving you occasion of glorying on our behalf ,
that ye may have wherewith to answer them that glory in appearance ,
and not in heart .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:13 @
For whether we are beside ourselves ,
it is unto God ;
or whether we are of sober mind ,
it is unto you .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:14 @
For the love of Christ constraineth us ;
because we thus judge ,
that one died for all ,
therefore all died ;
asv @
2Corinthians:5:15 @
and he died for all ,
that they that live should no longer live unto themselves ,
but unto him who for their sakes died and rose again .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:16 @
Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh :
even though we have known Christ after the flesh ,
yet now we know him so no more .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:17 @
Wherefore if any man is in Christ ,
he is a new creature :
the old things are passed away ;
behold ,
they are become new .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:18 @
But all things are of God ,
who reconciled us to himself through Christ ,
and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation ;
asv @
2Corinthians:5:19 @
to wit ,
that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself ,
not reckoning unto them their trespasses ,
and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:20 @
We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ ,
as though God were entreating by us :
we beseech you on behalf of Christ ,
be ye reconciled to God .
asv @
2Corinthians:5:21 @
Him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf ;
that we might become the righteousness of God in him .
