Worship Highlight:  Our worship this week focuses on God’s holiness and glory because he has lifted the veil that was over our hearts and revealed the glory of Christ. 2 Corinthians 3:7-18 contrasts the fading glory of the old covenant to the surpassing glory of the new. It also teaches us that we are being transformed by the Spirit into his glory.

Last Sunday's Sermon: 2 Corinthians 2:16b-3:6
"Letters From Christ, Written by the Holy Spirit" (Rev. Erik Veerman)

    In this text, we see our grounds for confidence in Christian ministry. Christ works by the Holy Spirit through those who proclaim the gospel to write His word on the hearts of His people. And the lives of such people are evidence of God's power.
What makes Paul's ministry stand out against the ministry of the so-called "Super Apostles"? Paul was not peddling God's word for personal gain; rather, he was a servant of God, empowered by God, for the sake of God's reputation in the world. Paul didn't need other human beings to write letters of recommendation for him; he already had the greatest letter of recommendation one could receive: the Corinthians, who had been powerfully transformed by Christ through Paul's ministry. The proof was in the gospel pudding!
How was this ministry so effective? Rather than simply preach the righteousness of the Law (which cannot remove sin), Paul preached Christ who, by the Spirit, mercifully forgives sin and who writes the Law on the hearts of His people. The letter of the Law can only kill. But the Holy Spirit can cleanse us because of the work of Christ. Christ delivers us from the death that the Law demands. He gives us life by the Spirit and makes obedient to His word. This is the confidence we can have in gospel ministry, the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
