YOU ARE A LETTER FROM CHRIST
Keywords 3:3
You show that you are a letter from
Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of
the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
1.
God gave his word to us. He forgives our sins and makes us new. He is all the recommendation we need, for he
purifies us with his Spirit. He creates each of us newly and makes us a
testimony of the gospel of the forgiveness of sins. Each believer is a unique
letter of Christ. His power and grace are written in our hearts and lives. Our ministry
is also a letter that testifies to the living God who is at work in the world
today.
2. God worked in and through Paul
to make him competent as a minister of the new covenant. The new covenant,
sealed by Jesus' blood, is God's promise to forgive sinners who repent and
believe in Jesus, and his promise to give them his Holy Spirit. The Spirit of
God gives believers new birth into the family of God and into a living hope in
the heavenly kingdom.
Prayer Lord, thank you for your word and
Spirit that gives life and makes new. Bless me to be a living letter of the
gospel today.
