“For the Love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and Jesus died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him Who for their sake died and was raised.
From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”
2 Corinthians 5:14-17
