How much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness



How much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness

2 Cor 3:9

If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! 

Rom 1:17

17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,[e] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”[f]

Rom 3:21, 22

21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.22 This righteousness is given through faith in[h] Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 

We learn the following from the above verses

1)    The ministry that brings righteousness would be glorious ministry

2)    For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed

3)    The righteous will live by faith

4)    This righteousness is given through faith in[h] Jesus Christ to all who believe.

5)    For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
