2 Corinthians 4:3-7

3So if the Good News that we tell others is covered with a veil, it is hidden from those who are dying.

4The god of this world has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. As a result, they don’t see the light of the Good News about Christ’s glory. It is Christ who is God’s image.

5Our message is not about ourselves. It is about Jesus Christ as the Lord. We are your servants for his sake.

6We are his servants because the same God who said that light should shine out of darkness has given us light. For that reason we bring to light the knowledge about God’s glory which shines from Christ’s face.

7Our bodies are made of clay, yet we have the treasure of the Good News in them. This shows that the superior power of this treasure belongs to God and doesn’t come from us.
