2 Corinthians 3:16-18
EasyEnglish Bible
16 But when a person turns to trust the Lord, then God takes the cloth away.[a]
17 The Lord is the same as the Spirit. And when the Lord's Spirit is with anyone, that person is free. 18 We show the power of the Lord to other people. It is like God has removed a cloth from over our faces. He is changing us so that we become more and more like him. We show how great God is more and more clearly. It is the Lord who does all this, by the work of his Spirit.
