| 1 | For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. | Jb 19:25 Jb 19:26 Ps 56:9 2Ti 1:12 1Jn 3:2 1Jn 3:14 1Jn 3:19 1Jn 5:19 1Jn 5:20 |
| 2 | For most assuredly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven; | 2Co 5:4 Ro 7:24 Ro 8:23 1Pe 1:6 1Pe 1:7 |
| 3 | if so be that being clothed we will not be found naked. | Gn 3:7-11 Ex 32:25 Rev 3:18 Rev 16:15 |
| 4 | For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened; not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. | 2Pe 1:13 |
| 5 | Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit. | 2Co 4:17 Isa 29:23 Isa 60:21 Isa 61:3 Eph 2:10 |
| 6 | Being therefore always of good courage, and knowing that, while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord; | 2Co 5:8 Ps 27:3 Ps 27:4 Pr 14:26 Isa 30:15 Isa 36:4 Heb 10:35 1Pe 5:1 Rev 1:9 |
| 7 | for we walk by faith, not by sight. | 2Co 1:24 2Co 4:18 Dt 12:9 Ro 8:24 Ro 8:25 1Co 13:12 Ga 2:20 Heb 10:38 Heb 11:1-26 Heb 11:27-26 1Pe 1:8 1Pe 5:9 |
| 8 | We are of good courage, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord. | 2Co 5:6 2Co 12:2 2Co 12:3 Lk 2:29 Ac 21:13 Php 1:20-24 2Ti 4:7 2Ti 4:8 2Pe 1:14 2Pe 1:15 2Pe 3:11 2Pe 3:12 |
| 9 | Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him. | Jn 6:27 Ro 15:20 1Co 9:26 1Co 9:27 1Co 15:58 Col 1:29 1Th 4:11 1Ti 4:10 Heb 4:11 2Pe 1:10 2Pe 1:11 2Pe 3:14 |
| 10 | For we must all be revealed before the judgment seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. | Gn 18:25 1Sa 2:3 1Sa 2:10 Ps 7:6-8 Ps 9:7 Ps 9:8 Ps 50:3-6 Ps 96:10-13 Ps 98:9 Ec 11:9 Ec 12:14 Ezk 18:30 Mt 25:31-46 Ac 10:42 Ac 17:31 Ro 14:10-12 1Pe 4:5 Jud 1:14 Jud 1:15 Rev 20:11-15 |
| 11 | Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are revealed to God; and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences. | Gn 35:5 Jb 6:4 Jb 18:11 Jb 31:23 Ps 73:19 Ps 76:7 Ps 88:15 Ps 88:16 Ps 90:11 Isa 33:14 Nah 1:6 Mt 10:28 Mt 25:46 Mk 8:35-38 Mk 9:43-50 Lk 12:5 Heb 10:31 Jud 1:23 Rev 20:15 |
| 12 | For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance, and not in heart. | 2Co 3:1 2Co 6:4 2Co 10:8 2Co 10:12 2Co 10:18 2Co 12:11 Pr 27:2 |
| 13 | For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you. | 2Co 11:1 2Co 11:16 2Co 11:17 2Co 12:6 2Co 12:11 Ac 26:24 Ac 26:25 1Co 4:10-13 1Th 2:3-11 |
| 14 | For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died. | 2Co 8:8 2Co 8:9 So 1:4 So 8:6 So 8:7 Mt 10:37 Mt 10:38 Lk 7:42-47 Jn 14:21-23 Jn 21:15-17 1Co 16:22 Eph 3:18 Eph 3:19 Eph 6:24 Heb 6:10 1Pe 1:8 |
| 15 | He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again. | 2Co 3:6 Ezk 16:6 Ezk 37:9 Ezk 37:14 Hab 2:4 Zc 10:9 Jn 3:15 Jn 3:16 Jn 5:24 Jn 6:57 Ro 6:2 Ro 6:11 Ro 6:12 Ro 8:2 Ro 8:6 Ro 8:10 Ro 14:7 Ro 14:8 1Co 6:19 1Co 6:20 Ga 2:20 Ga 5:25 Eph 5:14 Col 2:12 Col 3:1 1Pe 4:6 1Jn 4:9 |
| 16 | Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more. | Dt 33:9 1Sa 2:29 Mt 10:37 Mt 12:48-50 Mk 3:31-35 Jn 2:4 Jn 15:14 Ga 2:5 Ga 2:6 Ga 5:6 Php 3:7 Php 3:8 Col 3:11 1Ti 5:21 1Ti 5:22 Jm 2:1-4 Jm 3:17 |
| 17 | Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, they have become new. | 2Co 5:19 2Co 5:21 2Co 12:2 Isa 45:17 Isa 45:24 Isa 45:25 Jn 14:20 Jn 15:2 Jn 15:5 Jn 17:23 Ro 8:1 Ro 8:9 Ro 16:7 Ro 16:11 1Co 1:30 Ga 3:28 Ga 5:6 Eph 1:3 Eph 1:4 Php 4:21 |
| 18 | But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation; | Jn 3:16 Jn 3:27 Ro 11:36 1Co 1:30 1Co 8:6 1Co 12:6 Col 1:16 Col 1:17 Jm 1:17 |
| 19 | namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation. | Mt 1:23 Jn 14:10 Jn 14:11 Jn 14:20 Jn 17:23 1Ti 3:16 |
| 20 | We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us. We beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. | 2Co 3:6 Jb 33:23 Pr 13:17 Mal 2:7 Jn 20:21 Ac 26:17 Ac 26:18 Eph 6:20 |
| 21 | For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. | Isa 53:4-6 Isa 53:9-12 Dn 9:26 Zc 13:7 Ro 8:3 Ga 3:13 Eph 5:2 1Pe 3:18 1Jn 2:1 1Jn 2:2 |
