2 Corinthians 3:7 in context

  1. 5not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,
  2. 6who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

  4. 8won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
  5. 9For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
