15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. |
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. |
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. |
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; |
19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. |
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. |
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. |
