10For we must all appear beforethe judgment seat of Christ, so thateach one may receivecompensation for [e]his deeds donethrough the body, in accordancewith what he has done, whethergood or bad.
11Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade people, but we are well known to God; and I hope that we are also well knowing your consciences. 12We are not commending ourselves to you again, but are giving you an opportunity to be proud of us, sothat you will have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart. 13For if we have lost our minds, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it isfor you. 14For the love of Christ Controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died15and He died for all, so that those who live would no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose on their behalf.
16Therefore from now on we recognize no one [f]by the flesh; even though we have knownChrist by the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer.17Therefore if anyone is in Christ, this person is a new [g]creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18Now allthese things are from God, whoreconciled us to Himself throughChrist and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19namely, that Godwas in Christ reconciling the worldto Himself, not counting their wrongdoings against them, and [h]He has https://biblehub.com/nasb_/2_corinthians/5.htm#fncommitted to us the word of reconciliation.
20Therefore, we are ambassadorsfor Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21He made Him who knew no sin to be [j]sin in our behalf, so that we might becomethe righteousness of God in Him.”
Tell me how then, should we live?
“in Sanctification & holiness”
Which is our reasonable service.
