    This Chapter Brought so much light to me. At first it question's us, asking did u start to commend ourself? or need we? - How did you answer, who did you praise...

    (we should not steal any glory from God). Then we are reminded that it is not the things written down but that which is written in our hearts. (by which only the Holy Ghost can do), by that may be known and read of all men. (So the feeling we get from the law when read is abolished to ye but to keep us humble, that we continue God-ward to His Glory). For as much as we are openly declaring a speaker of Christ, not in ink but with the Spirit of the living God. ("It cannot be seen on table of stone (note: how this is not mentioning the heart, but clear stated as tables, manmade, steady, load bearing things, and to write in them is agonising work and seems physically impossible) Ezekiel. 36:26 Making it solely a spirit working; the Spirit has written them'. And we by faith we trust in Christ looking God-ward. No longer tied to the exterior earthly forwardness but the Spirits which giveth Life.

    This gives none a chance to boast or figure themselves above anyone, that they may think themselves, enough are sufficient, for all the sufficiency we have or not; "our sufficiency is of God".

    Such depth, I hope to meditate and remind my self of..

    Grace and peace from God our Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ.
