2 Corinthians 5 Verse 14:

2 Corinthians 5 verse 14: “For Christ love compels us since we have reaches this conclusion: if one died for all, then all died”.

Paul uses the Greek word ‘synecho’ [{syn = together with; echo is where we get English word echo} which is translated as ‘Seize’, ‘compel’ ‘urge, ‘control’, ‘lay hold of’

Paul is stating that the motivating passion of his life is Christ’s Love filling his head leaving him no choice but to surrender everything to God.

Paul gives us the motivation ‘to lay hold of’ by which we are to live our lives.

2 Corinthians 5 Verse 5: “And the One Who prepared us for the very thing in God, who gives us the Spirit as a down payment”.

This is no empty hope, for God Himself has prepared us for a wonderful destiny.

The faith we have is His Faith. Verse 1: “for we live by faith, not by what we see with the eyes”.

Read again Verse 14: About Our Lord and Our Friend endless love for us.

Endless love, Purpose and Destiny, and a Helper, Comforter to live our lives in Him and for Him.

God Bless.
