2 Corinthians 3:1-6 ▼

1 Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or like some, do we need letters of recommendation to you? or from you??

2 You? are our letter, having been inscribed in our hearts, being known and being read by all men,

3 being revealed that you? are a letter of Christ, having been ministered to by us, having been inscribed not in ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not in tablets of stone but in tablets of fleshly hearts.

4 Now we have such confidence through Christ toward God.

5 Not that we are sufficient from ourselves to reckon anything as of ourselves, but our sufficiency is of God,

6 who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
