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 those who live would no longer 3live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose on their behalf.

16Therefore from now on we recognize no one 45by 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 6in Christ, this person is 7a new 8creation; 9the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
