Presentation transcript:

2 Co.3:18 We all: every believer Unveiled face: looks at Lord w/o veil, unlike Moses (covered face before Israel) Behold... and reflect: Jn.1:14; 2 Pt.1:16-17; Ac.4:13; 1 Pt.2:21 Transformed: Mt.17:2. Moses reflected God’s glory; our face reflects glory Image: 4:4; Ga.4:19; 2 Pt.1:4 Glory to glory: progress in spirituality

A Contrast, 2 Co.4:2 Renounce = disown, disclaim Shame = disgraceful, underhanded Craftiness = capable of anything, 12:16; Lk.20:23 Deceit = falsify, cheapen (2:17); 12:16 Commend = 3:1; 5:12; 10:12, 18 Conscience = every person’s aware- ness of what is right

The Light, 2 Co.4:6 The second, “Let there be light” –The new creation (cf. 5:19) –God’s light dispels darkness Isa.9:2; Jn.1:4; 8:12; 2 Pt.1:19 There is no evolution of light; dark cannot produce its opposite

Earthen Vessels, 2 Co.4:7 Treasure – ministry (1), word, truth (2)… Vessels – Ac.9:15; Ep.3:3-5 –Apostles chosen to reveal gospel Earthen – fragile; breakable. 2 Tim.2:20 –What vessel is suitable for gospel? That (purpose): to show that such power could not originate w. men –12:9; 5:1; 1 Co.4:11-13; 1:26-29

Reasons for not quitting 1.Privilege of ministry in covenant of unfading splendor, 3:17-4:1 2.Mercy of God, 4:1 3.God’s instrument for revealing life of Jesus, 4: Enhancement of God’s reputation as converts grow, 4: Daily death is pathway to eternal life, 4:16-18

Sustained by hope, 4:16 We do not lose heart (v.1) Our outward man is perishing – Mt.10:28. Earthen vessel (4:7…10) Inward man is being renewed… Spiritual renewal matches physical decline step for step

Contrasts, 4:16-18 Outward man Perishing Light Affliction Moment Not look Seen Temporary Inward man, 16 Being renewed, 16 Weight, 17 Glory, 17 Eternal, 17 Look, 18 Not seen, 18 Eternal, 18
