What does Jesus need to kill in you?? Good Question!
Anyone willing to be forthcoming?


2 Corinthians 5:
Temporal and Eternal

1, 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.

2, For in this we groan,
earnestly desiring to be clothed upon
with our house which is from heaven:

3, If so be that being clothed
we shall not be found naked.

4, For we that are in this tabernacle
do groan, being burdened:

not for that we would be unclothed, :wink:

but clothed upon,
that mortality might be
swallowed up of life.

5, Now he that hath wrought us
for the selfsame thing is God,
who also hath given unto us
the earnest of the Spirit.

6, Therefore we are always confident,
knowing that,
whilst we are at home in the body,
we are absent from the Lord:

7, (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) glasses

8, We are confident, I say,
and willing rather to be absent
from the body,
and to be present with the Lord.

9, Wherefore we labour,
that, whether present or absent,
we may be accepted of him.

10, 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.

11, 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.

12, 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.

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

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

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.

16, 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.

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

18, And all things are of God,
who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ,
and hath given to us
the ministry of reconciliation;

19, 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.

20, 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.

21, 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.
