Pastor Tom Ascol continues his 2 Corinthians series with a message about 2 Corinthians 4:7 – 15 entitled “Treasures in Jars of Clay.” The Dead Sea Scrolls, the oldest manuscript fragment we have of the Old Testament books, were found in the late 1940’s in jars of clay. For over two millennia simple earthen pots had held treasures of the Old Testament. In a similar manner, the bodies of believers, simple earthen vessels, are indwelt by the Holy Spirit with the ability to proclaim the gospel message, a treasure of even greater value than the scrolls. In fact, it points to one of the truths regarding a faithful gospel ministry: gospel ministry consists of ordinary people declaring an extraordinary message.
