2 Corinthians 5:17-21 Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18) Now all these things [eternal life, imputed righteousness, baptism of the H.S.] are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation [witness- Ing to others],
19) namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world [unlimited atonement] to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation [the gospel]. 20) There -fore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were entreating through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God [believe the gospel].
21) He [God the Father]made Him [God the Son] who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
