Because believers will have a new body and have the Holy Spirit as a pledge, Paul reminds them to live by faith that they may please the Lord. He continues by reminding them to persuade others because 1) believers will appear at the judgment seat of Christ and 2) because of love for Christ who died for believers.

"we are not at home with the Lord" or "we are not in heaven with the Lord"
# we walk by faith, not by sight
"we live according to faith, not according to what we see"
# We would rather be away from the body
Here the word "body" refers to the physical body.
# at home with the Lord
"at home with the Lord in heaven"
