In Chapter 4, Paul wrote, “We have this treasure in earthen vessels; that the surpassing greatness of the power may be of God and not from ourselves.”

In other words, we’re just clay pots; we’re just earthen vessels. That puts it all in perspective. What’s more important, the clay pot, the earthen vessel, or the great treasure of glory it contains?

This is a great encouragement, though our outer man is decaying, our inner man is being renewed day by day.

Life here on this earth is just temporary; there is a greater glory waiting for us. We walk through this life in these broken down tents, longing for that greater glory. But we don’t just long for that greater glory, God is preparing us for it. In fact, the troubles and difficulties of this life are producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, Paul said. Our inner man is being renewed day by day.

While we are here, living in this broken down world, how shall we live? “Walk by faith and not by sight,” Paul said. In other words, live by faith, knowing that we are leaving behind these old broken down earthen vessels and look forward to being in the presence of the Lord.

Walk by faith knowing that we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. In other words, how we live in this life matters and has a bearing on our future glory.

When you walk by faith, you’re walking in a relationship to God Himself. He gave us the Holy Spirit as a deposit, as a pledge, as a guarantee of the overflowing life God has in store for us in the future. In other words, we are experiencing the love of God right now. So much so that Paul said in verse 14,“The love of Christ controls us, having concluded this… That they who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.”

Now, when we come to these verses, beginning in verse 17, Paul tells us the results of walking by faith. These truths are very personal and when we take hold of them we understand the power of true spiritual transformation.
