‏ 2 Corinthians 3:8-10

v. 9: The law is called the ministration of condemnation, because it condemns and curses everyone who does not obey everything written in it. But the gospel is the ministration of righteousness(2 Corinthians 3:9 a). Through the gospel, God’s righteousness is revealed by faith, and we learn that the just shall live by faith(Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17 b). The gospel shows God’s mercy through Jesus Christ, offering forgiveness and eternal life. Its glory is so great that it makes the glory of the law seem small by comparison (2 Corinthians 3:10 c).
