2 Corinthians 3:1 to 18 Now that we have learned a lot about Jesus Christ, are we going to return to our old mistakes and customs? No way! It's time to have the word of God in our hearts, and not just as a superficial appearance. The law was temporary, necessary for the maturation of men, but still temporary. The Holy Spirit, on the other hand, is eternal. When he is in us, we become more like Christ, not Satan.
