Posted by Jonathan Merigala Those who were trying to be saved by keeping the Old Testament were soon tied up in rules and ceremonies.
But now, through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, God provides freedom from sin and condemnation.
Sometimes we take for granted that Christ took up the condemnation of every human to ever life and paid the ultimate price.
The glory that the Spirit imparts to the believer is more excellent and lasts longer than the glory that Moses experienced.
By gazing at the nature of God with unveiled minds, we can become more like him. By learning about Christ’s life, we can fully understand how wonderful God is and the components of his nature.
As our knowledge deepens, the Holy Spirit helps us change.
According to the doctrine of sanctification, the process of developing an intimate relationship with our heavenly Father is a progressive experience that we all should experience.
2 Corinthians 3:17-18
17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
