2 Corinthians 5:13-17

13For if we have 1lost our minds, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you. 14For the love of Christ 2controls us, having concluded this, that 3one died for all, therefore all died; 15and He died for all, so that those who live would no longer 4live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose on their behalf.

16Therefore from now on we recognize no one 56by the flesh; even though we have known Christ by the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer. 17Therefore if anyone is 7in Christ, this person is 8a new 9creation; 10the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
