Due to the influence of other travelling teachers, the Corinthians have been seeking to turn back to the old covenant in order to secure glory for themselves. In response to that, Paul argues that the new covenant has greater glory because it leads to life, is eternal, and brings freedom. While we ourselves may not be in much danger of turning back to the old covenant, many of us are often tempted to seek out different pathways to glory. May we instead seek the greater glory that is found in Christ through the Gospel.
