2 Corinthians 5:14 meaning and explanation
For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that One died for all, therefore all died.
2 Corinthians 5:14, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Paul is writing to the church at Corinth, defending his ministry and explaining what drives him to keep preaching despite hardship. The Greek word translated "compels" is synechei, meaning to hold together or press in on someone, so Christ's love is not a vague feeling but a pressure that controls him.
