2 Kor 5:17 Jos siis joku on Kristuksessa, hän
on uusi luomus. Vanha on kadonnut,
uusi on tullut tilalle! Jes. 43:18,19;
Gal. 6:15; Kol. 3:11
18. Kaikki tämä on Jumalasta, joka
Kristuksen kautta on sovittanut meidät
itsensä kanssa ja antanut meille
sovituksen viran. Room. 5:10; 2. Kor. 3:6;
1. Joh. 4:10
19. Sillä Jumala oli Kristuksessa ja
sovitti maailman itsensä kanssa eikä
lukenut ihmisille heidän rikkomuksiaan,
ja hän uskoi meille sovituksen
sanan. Ps. 32:2; Room. 3:24,25, 4:8; Kol. 1:20
20. Kristuksen puolesta me siis olemme
lähettiläitä, ja Jumala kehottaa
meidän kauttamme. Me pyydämme
Kristuksen puolesta: antakaa sovittaa
itsenne Jumalan kanssa. Jes. 45:22, 52:7;
1. Kor. 4:1
21. Hänet, joka ei synnistä tiennyt,
Jumala teki meidän tähtemme synniksi,
jotta me hänessä tulisimme Jumalan
vanhurskaudeksi. Jes. 53:6,9,12;
1. Piet. 2:22
2. Kor. 6:1. Jumalan työtovereina me kehotamme
teitä ottamaan vastaan Jumalan
armon niin, ettei se jää turhaksi.
1. Kor. 3:9; 2. Kor. 1:24, 5:20
2. Sanoohan hän:
”Sopivalla ajalla minä olen sinua
kuullut
ja pelastuksen päivänä sinua
auttanut.”
Nyt on sopiva aika, nyt on pelastuksen
päivä. Jes. 49:8; Luuk. 4:18,19;Room. 13:12

Corinthians 5:17-21Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
17 Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
18 But all things are from God, Who through Jesus Christ reconciled us to Himself [received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself] and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation [that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him].
19 It was God [personally present] in Christ, reconciling and restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up and holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them], and committing to us the message of reconciliation (of the restoration to favor).
20 So we are Christ’s ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ’s personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.
21 For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [[a]endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].
2 Corinthians 6:1-2Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
6 Laboring together [as God’s fellow workers] with Him then, we beg of you not to receive the grace of God in vain [that [a]merciful kindness by which God exerts His holy influence on souls and turns them to Christ, keeping and strengthening them—do not receive it to no purpose].
2 For He says, In the time of favor (of an assured welcome) I have listened to and heeded your call, and I have helped you on the day of deliverance (the day of salvation). Behold, now is truly the time for a gracious welcome and acceptance [of you from God]; behold, now is the day of salvation!
