2 Corinthians 3:16-18
16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
林後3:16-18
16 但他們的心幾時歸向主,帕子就幾時除去了。17 主就是那靈,主的靈在哪裡,那裡就得以自由。18 我們眾人既然敞著臉得以看見主的榮光,好像從鏡子裡返照,就變成主的形狀,榮上加榮,如同從主的靈變成的。
God has predetermined the destination of all who are saved - to be conformed to the image of His Son. But how do we get there? Today's passage shows us that it's not by the law, which only binds us outwardly, but by His Spirit who transforms us from inside out; never the head knowledge but the revelation of the Lord of glory. And when we set our heart to make Holy Spirit Lord over our lives we will begin to experience that glorious liberty of being God's children. Having this wonderful promise, shall we not find every opportunity to turn our heart to the Lord and in simple faith be immersed in the glory of His presence. We will be amazed how such communion can change us from one degree of glory to another degree of glory! That's God's way to bring us closer to our blessed destination!
