For we know that if our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. God
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
For we that are in [this] tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing [is] God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. God Holy Spirit
Therefore [we are] always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: God Jesus Christ
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
We are confident, [I say], and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. God Jesus Christ
Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
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. God Jesus Christ
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. God Jesus Christ
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.
For whether we be beside ourselves, [it is] to God: or whether we be sober, [it is] for your cause. God
For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: God Jesus Christ
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.
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. God Jesus Christ
Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. God Jesus Christ
And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; God Jesus Christ
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. God Jesus Christ
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. God Jesus Christ
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. God
