2 Corinthians 5:16-18 From now on we know no man according to the flesh: even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no longer.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ From now on we know no man according to the flesh: even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no longer. ¹⁷ If any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things have passed away. Behold, they have become new. ¹⁸ All things are from God who reconciled us to himself through Christ. He gave the ministry of reconciliation to us.
