2 Corinthians 3:3-6
3revealing yourselves, that you are a letter of Christ, 12delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of 3the living God, not on 4tablets of stone but on 5tablets of 67human hearts.
4Such is the 8confidence we have toward God through Christ. 5Not that we are adequate in ourselves so as to consider anything as having come from ourselves, but 9our adequacy is from God, 6who also made us adequate as 10servants of a 11new covenant, not of 12the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but 13the Spirit gives life.
