6 Therefore __ we are always confident knowing that whilst we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord 7 For we walk by faith not by sight 8 We are confident I say and __ willing rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord 9 Wherefore we labour that whether present or absent we may be accepted of him 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ that every one may receive the things done in his body according to that he hath done whether it be good or bad
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men but we are made manifest unto God and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences 12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you but give you occasion to glory on our behalf that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance and not in heart 13 For whether we be beside ourselves it is to God or whether we be sober it is for your cause 14 For the love of Christ constraineth us because we thus judge that if one died for all then were all dead 15 And that he died for all that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves but unto him which died for them and rose again
16 Wherefore henceforth __ know we no man after the flesh yea though we have known Christ after the flesh yet now henceforth know we him no more 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creature old things are passed away behold all things are become new 18 And all things are of God who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation 19 To wit that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself not imputing their trespasses unto them and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ as though God did beseech you by us we pray you in Christ's stead be ye reconciled to God 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of God in him
