      [continued from previous message]              of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:              14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same       vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is       done away in Christ.              15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.              16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken       away.              17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is,       there is liberty.              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.              2 Corinthians Chapter 4              1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we       faint not;              2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in       craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by       manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's       conscience in the sight of God.              3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:              4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which       believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the       image of God, should shine unto them.              5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves       your servants for Jesus' sake.              6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined       in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in       the face of Jesus Christ.              7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of       the power may be of God, and not of us.              8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed,       but not in despair;              9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;              10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that       the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.              11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake,       that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.              12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.              13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I       believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;              14 Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also       by Jesus, and shall present us with you.              15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might       through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.              16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet       the inward man is renewed day by day.              17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a       far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;              18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things       which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the       things which are not seen are eternal.              ---              God se brug na die ewige lewe - https://afrikaans.gods-bridge.com              100% Jewish, 100% Christian Is It Possible? - https://messianictestimony.org              Gottes Brücke Zum Ewigen Leben - https://german.gods-bridge.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
