2 Corinthians 5:11-15
11Therefore, knowing the 1fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest to God; and I hope that we are 2made manifest also in your consciences. 12We are not 3again commending ourselves to you but are giving you an 4occasion to be proud of us, so that you will have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart. 13For if we 5are 6beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you. 14For the love of Christ 7controls us, having concluded this, that 8one died for all, therefore all died; 15and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer 9live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
