2Corinthians:5:11-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Knowing ,
therefore ,
the terror of the Lord ,
we persuade men ;
but we are well known to God ,
and I also trust are well known in your consciences .
*
For we do not commend ourselves again to you ,
but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf ,
that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart .
*
For if we are beside ourselves ,
it is for God ;
or if we are of sound mind ,
it is for you .
*
For the love of Christ compels us ,
because we judge thus :
that if One died for all ,
then all died ;
*
and He died for all ,
that those who live should live no longer for themselves ,
but for Him who died for them and rose again .
*
Therefore ,
from now on ,
we regard no one according to the flesh .
Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh ,
yet now we know Him thus no longer .
*
Therefore ,
if anyone is in Christ ,
he is a new creation ;
old things have passed away ;
behold ,
all things have become new .
*
Now all things are of God ,
who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ ,
and has given us the ministry of reconciliation ,
*
that is ,
that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself ,
not imputing their trespasses to them ,
and has committed to us the word of reconciliation .
*
Now then ,
we are ambassadors for Christ ,
as though God were pleading through us :
we implore you on Christ '
s behalf ,
be reconciled to God .
*
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us ,
that we might become the righteousness of God in Him .
