1-6_The god of this world has blinded the eyes of the lost. God who said, Let light shine out of darkness, is the One who has shone in out hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

__7-18_Any power we have comes from God. We are dying to self daily so that Christ may live in us. For we do not lose heart, though our outer man is decaying, our inner man is being renewed day by day. Any affliction we experience now is out weighed by the eternal glory yet to come.

1-10_While we live in this mortal tent we longingly await the body God has prepared. We know that while we are at home in this body, we are absent from the LORD. We walk by faith and not by sight. We look forward to the day we no longer live in this body, but when we will be with the LORD.

__11-21_Because Christ died for all, all have died. We should live no longer for ourselves, but for Him who died and rose again in our behalf. Therefore, if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature. God made Christ who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteous of God in Him.
