2 Corinthians 3:1-6
Ministers of a New Covenant
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?
1:
2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
2:
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 in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
3:
4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:
4:
5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency [is] of God;
5:
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.
