The Glory of the Gospel | 2 Corinthians 3:1-18 | February 15, 2026

Описание: Many people live under a constant cloud of guilt and spiritual inadequacy, feeling like they can never measure up to God's standards. In 2 Corinthians 3, Paul contrasts the Old Covenant of law with the New Covenant of grace, explaining how God's perfect law was meant to show us our need for a Savior rather than provide salvation itself. While the law was glorious, it brought condemnation because we cannot keep it perfectly. The New Covenant, however, brings righteousness through faith in Christ's finished work rather than our performance. Jesus lived the perfect life we could never live and took our punishment on the cross, satisfying God's justice completely. This means salvation is available as a free gift to anyone who calls on the Lord's name, not something we earn through religious activities or moral improvement.
