ALL of us are unworthy of the presence of God. But through Jesus the veil is torn. Our sins are washed clean when we believe and accept Him as our savior. We are given so much, he just asks for faith.  In a devotional about the Holy Spirit it cites this verse “And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.”  1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:11‬ ‭ESV‬‬ You were washed, justified, and sanctified That means you are made clean, made right, made holy That is impossible without God.

And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3:16-18‬ ‭ESV‬‬  Most of what chapter 3 of 2nd Corinthians is talking about is the difference between the old covenant and the new covenant. The covenants that God made to Israel through Moses, and the covenant that God made through his Son Jesus. There seems to be a theme in the Old Testament of the heavy yoke / burden the laws placed on the people. Through series of sacrifices made by the priests on your behalf you could be attoned for a time. What Paul is speaking to is the truth found in the blood of Jesus. That his sacrifice attones once and for all for our sins, and that we are free from the law. Freedom comes at the cost of believi...
