2 Corinthians 5: 17 - 21
|
| 17
|
Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.
|
| 18
|
All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;
|
| 19
|
that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.
|
| 20
|
So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
|
| 21
|
For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
