2 Corinthians 5:11-17

11ThereforeG3767, since we knowG1492 what it means to fearG5401 theG3588 LordG2962, we try to persuadeG3982 menG444. What we are is clearG5319 to GodG2316, andG1161 I hopeG1679 it is clearG5319 toG1722 yourG4771 conscienceG4893 as wellG2532. 12We are not commendingG3756G4921 ourselvesG1438 to youG4771 againG3825. InsteadG235, we are givingG1325 youG4771 an occasionG874 to be proudG2745 ofG5228 usG1473, so thatG2443 you can answerG2192G4314 those whoG3588 take prideG2744 inG1722 appearancesG4383 rather than inG1722 the heartG2588.

13IfG1535 we are out of our mindG1839, it is for GodG2316; ifG1535 we are of sound mindG4993, it is for youG4771. 14ForG1063 Christ’sG5547 loveG26 compelsG4912 usG1473, because we are convincedG2919G3778 thatG3754 OneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thereforeG686 allG3956 diedG599. 15AndG2532 He diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thatG2443 those whoG3588 liveG2198 should no longerG3371 liveG2198 for themselvesG1438, butG235 for HimG3588 who diedG599 forG5228 themG846 andG2532 was raised againG1453.

16SoG5620 fromG575 now onG3568 weG1473 regardG1492 no oneG3762 according toG2596 the fleshG4561. AlthoughG2532G1487 we once regardedG1097 ChristG5547 in this way, we do so no longerG3765. 17ThereforeG5620 ifG1487 anyoneG5100 is inG1722 ChristG5547, he is a newG2537 creationG2937.1 TheG3588 oldG744 has passed awayG3928. BeholdG2400, the newG2537 has comeG1096!
