The Most Glorious Thing

2 Corinthians 3:6-11 KJV
Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.

The most glorious thing is of the Spirit, not of the letter
The most glorious thing is written on the heart (vs 3) not engraven in stone
The most glorious thing is the ministration of the Spirit, not the ministration of death
The most glorious thing is the ministration of righteousness, not the ministration of condemnation
The most glorious thing is that which remaineth, no that which is done away
