Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some, letters of commendation to you or from you?

Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?

You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all people,

Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:

revealing yourselves, that you are a letter of Christ, delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
