Review
Astounded, to God, A Saved Frame of Mind to You
Christ Died Once For All, Therefore All Died
We Now Know No One by the Flesh
A New Creation; the Christ
Understanding 2 Corinthians 5:17
The Importance of Following Grammar
“He is” is not in any of the original manuscripts.
It was added by translators as early as the KJV
Some newer translations do not put it in italics, letting the reader know it is added
The ESV (English Standard Version)
The HCSB (Homan Christian Standard Bible)
Some recognize “he is” is not in the original such as the New Revised Standard Version
Someone (τις ) in Christ; a new creation (κτίσις)
τις (Someone).
Masculine
κτίσις (Creation).
Feminine
Therefore, creation cannot refer to the person in Christ, but to Christ.
The normal grammatical structure would be to take the previous noun as the one being modified.
All Things Have Become New (γέγονεν καινὰ τὰ πάντα)
Question Whether “All things” should be included
Evidence is not strong either way
Requires a look at context
γέγονεν (Has become) requires a single subject
καινὰ (New), is in the Nominative, which is the case for the subject.
καινὰ (New), is neuter
It cannot apply to τις (Someone), which is masculine
Because καινὰ (New) is neuter and γέγονεν (Has become) requires an object for English, all things (τὰ πάντα) would be added as an ellipsis to complete the thought.
Why Go Through All This?
All Scripture is God-Breathed.
2 Timothy 3:16
2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is God-Breathed (θεόπνευστος) and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training παιδείαν) in righteousness;
Therefore Every Word is from God
By Using Proper Grammar and Context We Do Not Privately Interpret the Passage, it is Interpreted According to the Normal Use of the Language, 2 Peter 1:20
2 Peter 1:20
first knowing this, that all prophecy of Scripture does not come by one’s own interpretation
Not Modifying Scripture to Say What I Want
Clarifying the Meaning of Each Word So We Understand What is Actually Being Conveyed
This is an Important Passage In Understanding What God Did in Salvation
He Created a New Creation, Which Is Why Christ’s Righteousness Can be Reckoned to Us
This New Creation is Made of Both Jew and Gentile, Ephesians 2:15
Within This New Creation We Have Life, not Condemnation, Romans 8:1
The Holy Spirit Places Us Into This New Creation, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13
The Old Things Have Passed Away, Behold All Things Have Become New, 2 Corinthians 5:17
We Do Not Know Others By the Flesh Because All Things Have Become New, 2 Corinthians 5:17
2 Corinthians 5:17
So that since someone is in Christ, a new creation, the archaic things have passed away, look with discernment, all things have become new.
The Old Things
Who We Where in Adam, Romans 5:12
Romans 5:12
Because of this, just as through one man the sin entered the world and through the sin the death, also thus unto all men the death passed, on the basis that all sinned.
Condemned Before God, Romans 5:16
Romans 5:16
And the gift is not as through one having sinned.
For on the one hand judgment out from one [having sinned] unto condemnation, on the other hand the gracious gift out from many trespasses unto justification.
Separated in our Spirit, 1 Corinthians 2:14
1 Corinthians 2:14
But a soulish man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he does not have the ability to know, because they are spiritually discerned.
Was crucified with Christ, Romans 6:6
Romans 6:6
experientially knowing this, that our old man was co-crucified in order that the body of the sin [nature] should be rendered ineffective, so that we are no longer slaves to the sin [nature].
Corrupted by the desires of deceit, Ephesians 4:22
Has its Practices, Colossians 3:9
The New Things
The New Man
Made of Both Jew and Gentile, Ephesians 2:14-15
Ephesians 2:14–15
For He Himself is our peace, the One making both one and tore down the dividing wall of partition,
the enmity in His flesh, the Law of commandments in ordinances, so that in Himself He should make the two into one new man, making peace,
The New Creation, Galatians 6:15
Created in Righteousness, Piousness, and Truth, Ephesians 4:24
Ephesians 4:24
and put on the new man, the one according to God has been created in righteousness and piousness of the truth.
Being Renews To a Full Experiential Knowledge according to the Image of the One Creating it, Colossians 3:10
Alive in Our Spirit, 1 Corinthians 6:17
1 Corinthians 6:17
But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit
Able to Discern Spiritual Things, 1 Corinthians 2:14-15
1 Corinthians 2:14–15 (NASB95)
But a soulish man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he does not have the ability to know, because they are spiritually discerned.
But he who is spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is discerned by no one.
The Ministry of Reconciliation, 2 Corinthians 5:18-20
God is the One Reconciling Us to Himself Through Christ, 2 Corinthians 5:18
2 Corinthians 5:18
And all things are out from God, the One reconciling us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation,
God is the One Who Made the New Creation, the Christ
He Made it Possible for Reconciliation
We Were Reconciled While Being Enemies, Romans 5:10
He Has Given Us the Ministry of Reconciliation
God Was Not Imputing Trespasses, 2 Corinthians 5:19
2 Corinthians 5:19
as that the God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting to them their trespasses and having placed in you the word of reconciliation.
Trespass happens within the mind when we determine to do something wrong
Trespass and sin are different, Ephesians 2:1
We Are Representing on Behalf of Christ, 2 Corinthians 5:20
2 Corinthians 5:20
Therefore, on behalf of Christ we are representing as through us from the God of encouragement, we implore on behalf of Christ, be reconciled with God.
Paul was Put into Chains Because of the Gospel of Christ, Ephesians 6:19-20
