4:7 - [In Context ]But this precious treasure – this light and power that now shine within us – is held in perishable containers, that is, in our weak bodies. F10 So everyone can see that our glorious power is from God and is not our own.
4:8 - [In Context ]We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed and broken. We are perplexed, but we don't give up and quit.
4:9 - [In Context ]We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going.
4:10 - [In Context ]Through suffering, these bodies of ours constantly share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.
FOOTNOTES: F10: Greek But we have this treasure in earthen vessels.
