2 Corinthians 5:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ This is what God ·made [designed; prepared] us for, and he has given us the Spirit to be a ·guarantee for this new life [deposit; down payment; 1:22].

⁶ So we always have courage. We know that while we ·live [^Lare at home] in this body, we are ·away [absent; or exiles] from the Lord. ⁷ We ·live [walk] by ·what we believe [faith], not by ·what we can see [sight].
