So then from now on we acknowledge no one from an outward human point of view. Even though we have known Christ from such a human point of view, now we do not know him in that way any longer.
So then, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; what is old has passed away– look, what is new has come!
And all these things are from God who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and who has given us the ministry of reconciliation.

Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making his plea through us. We plead with you on Christ’s behalf,“Be reconciled to God!”
God made the one who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that in him we would become the righteousness of God.
