2 Corinthians 3:8-18 Catholic Living Bible The Way Illustrated Our Sunday Shall we not expect far greater glory in these days when the Holy Spirit is giving life?
If the plan that leads to doom was glorious, much more glorious is the plan that makes men right with God.
In fact, that first glory as it shone from Moses' face is worth nothing at all in comparison with the overwhelming glory of the new agreement.
So if the old system that faded into nothing was full of heavenly glory, the glory of God's new plan for our salvation is certainly far greater, for it is eternal.
Since we know that this new glory will never go away, we can preach with great boldness,
and not as Moses did, who put a veil over his face so that the Israelis could not see the glory fade away.
Not only Moses' face was veiled, but his people's minds and understanding were veiled and blinded too. Even now when the Scripture is read it seems as though Jewish hearts and minds are covered by a thick veil, because they cannot see and understand the real meaning of the Scriptures. For this veil of misunderstanding can be removed only by believing in Christ.
Yes, even today when they read Moses' writings their hearts are blind and they think that obeying the Ten Commandments is the way to be saved.
But whenever anyone turns to the Lord from his sins, than the veil is taken away.
The Lord is the Spirit who gives them life, and where he is there is freedom [from trying to be saved by keeping the laws of God].
But we Christians have no veil over our faces; we can be mirrors that brightly reflect the glory of the Lord. And as the Spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like him.
1 Corinthians 13:11-12 Catholic Living Bible The Way Illustrated Our Sunday It's like this: when I was a child I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child does. But when I became a man my thoughts grew far beyond those of my childhood, and now I have put away the childish things.
In the same way, we can see and understand only a little about God now, as if we were peering at his reflection in a poor mirror; but someday we are going to see him in his completeness, face to face. Now all that I know is hazy and blurred, but then I will see everything clearly, just as clearly as God sees into my heart right now.
1 Corinthians 15:42-46 Catholic Living Bible The Way Illustrated Our Sunday In the same way, our earthly bodies which die and decay are different from the bodies we shall have when we come back to life again, for they will never die.
The bodies we have now embarrass us for they become sick and die; but they will be full of glory when we come back to life again. Yes, they are week, dying bodies now, but when we live again they will be full of strength.
They are just human bodies at death, but when they come back to life they will be superhuman bodies. For just as there are natural, human bodies, there are also supernatural, spiritual bodies.
The Scriptures tell us that the first man, Adam, was given a natural, human body but Christ is more than that, for he was life-giving Spirit.
First, then, we have these human bodies and latter on God gives us spiritual, heavenly bodies.
2 Corinthians 4:4-6 Catholic Living Bible The Way Illustrated Satan, who is the god of this evil world, has made him blind, unable to see the glorious light of the Gospel that is shining upon him, or to understand the amazing message we preach about the glory of Christ, who is God.
We don't go around preaching about ourselves, but about Christ Jesus as Lord. All we say of ourselves is that we are your slaves because of what Jesus has done for us.
For God, who said, "Let there be light in the darkness," has made us understand that it is the brightness of his glory that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ.
