Thursday's Living Water

Scripture

For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore
all died;

and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him
who died and rose again on their behalf.

Therefore from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
2 Corinthians 5: 14-17
