Sermon: Unveiled Faces
By: Pastor Ben Hulst
II Corinthians 3.7-15: In contrast to the fading glories of all that the world pursues, we are given in Christ a gift of ever-increasing glory. It comes not from our efforts, but from relying on the efforts of Christ. His grace, not our works, is sufficient. All true glory is found in his love toward us in his willingness to die on our behalf. That is true glory, which we are welcomed into.
