[2 Corinthian 3:10 - 13] When the glorification of the Old Testament ministry is compared to the surpassing glory of the New Testament ministry, that glorification becomes nothing. Furthermore, the glory of the old covenant ministry shone upon the face of one man. However, the glory of the new covenant ministry shines within millions of believers. The glory came merely as a visit to Moses, staying on his face only for a while. But once the glory of the new covenant ministry comes, it remains forever. It will never leave. .. The old glory shone on Mosess face individually, but the New Testament glory shines from many different believers. The lasting glory of the new covenant ministry is the basis of the apostles hope. In the ministry of Moses, by comparison, there was no hope. ..According to Pauls interpretation, Moses put a veil on his face because he was afraid that the children of Israel would see the fading of the glory. Fading means termination... Moses realized that the shining on his face would not last very long... The principle is the same with us today. I can testify that the more I minister Christ, the more bold I become. Even though there is opposition to this ministry, I still have hope. (Life-Study of second Corinthians - Bro. Witness Lee)
