[h=3]2 Corinthians 5:17-21[/h]New King James Version (NKJV)
[SUP]17 [/SUP]Therefore, if anyone
is in Christ,
he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. [SUP]18 [/SUP]Now all things
are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, [SUP]19 [/SUP]that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
[SUP]20 [/SUP]Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us:
we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. [SUP]21 [/SUP]For He made Him who knew no sin
to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
