this

But euen vnto this day, when Moses is read, the vaile is vpon their heart.

¶ Therefore, seeing we haue this ministery, as we haue receiued mercie wee faint not:

In whom the God of this world hath blinded the minds of them which beleeue not, lest the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine vnto them.

But we haue this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellencie of the power may be of God, and not of vs.

¶ For we know, that if our earthly house of this Tabernacle were dissolued, wee haue a building of God, an house not made with hand, eternall in the heauens.

For in this we grone earnestly, desiring to be clothed vpō with our house, which is from heauen.

For, we that are in this tabernacle, doe grone, being burdened, not for that wee would bee vnclothed, but clothed vpon, that mortalitie might bee swallowed vp of life.

I speake not this to condemne you: for I haue said before, that you are in our hearts to die and liue with you.

For behold this selfe same thing that yee sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulnesse it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of your selues, yea, what indignation, yea what feare, yea what vehement desire, yea what zeale, yea what reuenge; In all things yee haue approued your selues to be cleare in this matter.

And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gaue their owne selues to the Lord, and vnto vs, by the will of God.
