2 Corinthians 5:16-20 So then, from now on we regard no one from a fleshly perspective—even if we have ‘known’ Christ in this way, we do so no longer

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ So then, from now on we regard no one from a fleshly perspective—even if we have ‘known’ Christ in this way, we do so no longer — ¹⁷ so then, if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation; the old things have passed on; look, all has become new! ¹⁸ And that ‘all’ is from the God who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ and given us the ministry of the reconciliation, ¹⁹ namely that in Christ God was reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, including committing to us the message of this reconciliation. ²⁰ So then, we are Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God!
