But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 7 is found in chapter 4 of 2 Corinthians. The treasure in jars of clay expresses the combination of the gospel’s value with the fragility of its messengers. The apostle’s weakness allows the extraordinary power to be attributed to God rather than the human instrument.
