2 Corinthians 5:15-17
Easy-to-Read Version
15 He died for all so that those who live would not continue to live for themselves. He died for them and was raised from death so that they would live for him.
16 From this time on we don’t think of anyone as the world thinks of people. It is true that in the past we thought of Christ as the world thinks. But we don’t think that way now. 17 When anyone is in Christ, it is a whole new world.[a] The old things are gone; suddenly, everything is new!

New International Version
15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves(A) but for him who died for them(B) and was raised again.
16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly(C) point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,(D) the new creation(E) has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here!(F)
