Beholding Jesus 2 Corinthians 3:18

Context of 2 Corinthians 3 2 Corinthians Outline Paul proves His discipleship 1-7 Prove the sincerity of your love 8-9 Paul proves his apostleship 10-13 Prove yourselves 13:5 The same way Paul proved his discipleship in chapters 1-7

Context of 2 Corinthians 3 2 Corinthians written to dispel doubts put into their minds by false Judaizing teachers 13:3 They slandered Paul 11:1-22, 10:10 They sent letters of recommendation for each other 10:12-18, 3:1-3 Paul alludes to this in the first three verses of chapter 3

Chapter 3 Corinthians’ conversion is Paul’s letter of recommendation 3:1-3 Written by God by the Spirit Ek.36:25-27 On the heart not on paper Jer. 31:31-34 Paul is simply the minister (servant) God gives Paul the ability

Letter vs. Spirit 3:6-11 “Letter of the Law” - no such thing “Spirit of the Law”- no such thing Legalism is not a method of interpretation Letter Kills Came with glory Condemns Glory is bright Glory is temporary Old law Spirit Gives life Is more glorious Justifies Glory is brighter Glory is permanent New law

2 Corinthians 3:12-18 Exodus 34:33-35 Moses put the veil on after he spoke to the people. Why? 3:13 So they could not see the glory fade The veil blocked their view of the end of the law and its glory The veil is still over their hearts 3:14 The gospel is not to be veiled 4:1-6

Looking to Jesus 3:16 Turning to the Lord results in unveiling Literally the meaning of “revelation” 3:17-18 Explained by 4:1-6 The process of change reveals God’s power and glory more than the law, more than any human effort, or any letter of recommendation

Lessons Just as Moses looked to the Lord We must look to Jesus spiritually Just as Moses reflected God’s glory We must reflect the glory of Christ Moses’ appearance was changed Our lives must be changed

Let God Change Your Life Look to Jesus, receive His word Believe in Him 2 Cor. 4:3-6 Let the love of God motivate you to change your mind Romans 2:4 Make a commitment to change your life This commitment is repentance A change of conduct will be the result of a change of mind

Let God Change Your Life Change your loyalty and show your faith by confessing Jesus as Lord Rom. 10:9-10 Act in harmony with your declaration of Jesus’ total authority Matt. 28:18 Change your relationship by being baptized into Christ Matthew 28:19, Galatians 3:26-27 A new life in Christ 2 Cor. 5:17, Eph. 1:3
