2 Corinthians 5:14 in Context — 2 Corinthians 5

12 Nous ne nous recommandons pas de nouveau nous-mêmes auprès de vous; mais nous vous donnons occasion de vous glorifier à notre sujet, afin que vous puissiez répondre à ceux qui tirent gloire de ce qui est dans les apparences et non dans le cœur.

13 En effet, si je suis hors de sens, c’est pour Dieu; si je suis de bon sens, c’est pour vous.

14 Car l’amour de Christ nous presse, parce que nous estimons que, si un seul est mort pour tous, tous donc sont morts;

15 et qu’il est mort pour tous, afin que ceux qui vivent ne vivent plus pour eux-mêmes, mais pour celui qui est mort et ressuscité pour eux.

16 Ainsi, dès maintenant, nous ne connaissons personne selon la chair; et si nous avons connu Christ selon la chair, maintenant nous ne le connaissons plus de cette manière.
