He died for us so we could live for Him.
We are all sinners. As unbelievers, we are all dead to Christ; we live according to the world and our fleshly desires. Christ died for all. When we, as sinners, accept Christ's death for ourselves, we are re-born, we have new life in Him ... i.e., a changed lifestyle.
"and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again. Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now, all things are of God,... Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ."-- 2 Corinthians 5: 15, 16a, 17, 18a and 20a.
