E. Soto
highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:1-3 ESV
Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you, or from you?You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on our hearts, to be known and read by all.And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 ESV
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:14 ESV
But their minds were hardened. For to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away.

highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:12-13 ESV
Since we have such a hope, we are very bold,not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze at the outcome of what was being brought to an end.

highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:11 ESV
For if what was being brought to an end came with glory, much more will what is permanent have glory.

E. Soto
highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:10 ESV
Indeed, in this case, what once had glory has come to have no glory at all, because of the glory that surpasses it.

highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:9 ESV
For if there was glory in the ministry of condemnation, the ministry of righteousness must far exceed it in glory.

E. Soto
highlighted 2 Corinthians 3:4-8 ESV
Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God.Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God,who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses' face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end,will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory?

highlighted Luke 7:40-49 ESV
And Jesus answering said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he answered, "Say it, Teacher.""A certain moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.When they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Now which of them will love him more?"Simon answered, "The one, I suppose, for whom he cancelled the larger debt." And he said to him, "You have judged rightly."Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little."And he said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, "Who is this, who even forgives sins?"

One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table.And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was reclining at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment,and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment.Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner."
