2 Corinthians 5:14-17

14For the love of Christ 1controls us, having concluded this, that 2one died for all, therefore all died; 15and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer 3live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.

16Therefore from now on we recognize no one 45according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ 6according to the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer. 17Therefore if anyone is 7in Christ, 8he is 9a new creature; 10the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
