| 2nd Corinthians 3:1 | Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:2 | Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:3 | Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tables of stone, but on fleshly tables of the heart. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:4 | And such trust we have through Christ toward God. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:5 | Not that we are sufficient by ourselves to think any thing as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God; | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:6 | Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:7 | But if the ministration of death, written and engraven on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away; | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:8 | How shall not the ministration of the Spirit be rather glorious? | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:9 | For if the ministration of condemnation was glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:10 | For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:11 | For if that which was done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:12 | Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:13 | And not as Moses, who put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:14 | But their minds were blinded: for until this day the same vail remaineth untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:15 | But even to this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:16 | Nevertheless, when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:17 | Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Corinthians 3:18 | But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. | |||||||||||||||
