17 So if any one {be} in Christ, {there is} a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new:

18 and all things {are} of the God who has reconciled us to himself by {Jesus} Christ, and given to us the ministry of that reconciliation:

19 how that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their offences; and putting in us the word of that reconciliation.
