King James Version (KJV)

2 Corinthians 5:15

“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.”

Verse in context — 2 Corinthians 5

For whether we be beside ourselves, [it is] to God: or whether we be sober, [it is] for your cause.

For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

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.

Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Paul’s defense of his ministry and encouragement in hardship.
