2 Corinthians 5:17-6:2

CAB(i) 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 And all things are of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and who gave to us the ministry of this reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not reckoning their transgressions to them, and committing to us the word of this reconciliation. 20 Now then, we serve as ambassadors for Christ, as though God were appealing through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 6 1 And working together with Him, we also urge that you not receive the grace of God in vain. 2 For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, and in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
