1 | Strong's context of verse in passage? | 2 Cor 5:14 | Tamara Brewington | 204340 | ||
Dear Doc, Came across another intreptation since you last wrote me about this... Here goes; The word control in II Corinthians 5:14 can aslo be translated as pushed out. From verses 15-19 Paul talks about who he will recognize, moves on to being a new creature, and then to the reconciliation to Christ. Then concludes this part of his discourse which section of the passage he began in verses 11-13 where he was talking about giving those to whom he preaches and teaches an occaission to be proud of him for doing so. See then down in II Corinithians 5:20,21 where it talks about him being an ambassador for Christ? See also verse 13 where he talks about being beside himself or of sound mind and how that is referring to being made manifest up in verse 11 and giving them an occaison to be proud of Pauls efforts as an apostle? Verse 14 talks in the second half and in verse 15 about the gospel that Paul has been made manifest for (verses 11,12) and that he is being "pushed out" to go preach as an ambassador of Christ (verse 20). What do you think of that interpretation Doc? Respectfuly the hat lady |

Greetings Tam! I like your take on this verse! It agrees with the NIV in that it translates the phrase as 'Christ's love compels us'. What is the appropriate response to the love of Christ that died for all? It is to go to all with the Gospel! The early church father, Mathetes said, "He Himself took on Him the burden of our iniquities, He gave His own Son as a ransom for us, the holy One for transgressors, the blameless One for the wicked, the righteous One for the unrighteous, the incorruptible One for the corruptible, the immortal One for them that are mortal. For what other thing was capable of covering our sins than His righteousness? By what other one was it possible that we, the wicked and ungodly, could be justified, than by the only Son of God? O sweet exchange! O unsearchable operation! O benefits surpassing all expectation! that the wickedness of many should be hid in a single righteous One, and that the righteousness of One should justify many transgressors!" Praise the Lord! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Yep, crack the books, to hit the mark, works every time, glory to God only. II Timothy 4:2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. Don't ever stop teaching people how to learn Pastor Moran. God Bless, the hat lady |
