A LETTER

Are we beginning to commend ourselves again?

Or do we need, like some people, letters of

recommendation to you or from you?

You yourselves are our letter, written on our

hearts, known and read by everybody.

You show that you are a letter from Christ,

the result of our ministry, written not with ink

but with the Spirit of the living God, not on

tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

(II. Corinthians 3.1-3).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

CONFIDENCE

Such confidence as this is ours through Christ before God.

Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything

for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.

He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant-

not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but

the Spirit gives life.

(II. Corinthians 3.4-6).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

SURPASSING GLORY

Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved

in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites

could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its

glory, fading though it was, will not the ministry of the Spirit

be even more glorious? If the ministry that condemns men is

glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings

righteousness!

For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the

surpassing glory. And if what was fading away came with glory,

how much greater is the glory of that which lasts!

(II. Corinthians 3.7-11).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

MADE NEW IN THE SPIRIT

MADE NEW IN THE SPIRIT

For when we were in the flesh,

the sinful passions which were

awakened by the Law were at

work in our members bore

fruit to death.

But now we have been discharged

from the Law, having died to

what we were held by,

so that we should serve in the

newness of the Spirit

and not in the oldness

of the letter.

( Romans 7.5 and 6).

Consider these:

1) Before being reborn of the Spirit,

obeying the letter of the Law was

the order of the day.

2) After your Spiritual rebirth you

can live in new freedom to obey

 our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

by yielding to the promptings

of the Holy Spirit.

3) Daily … Continue Reading
