A SPIRITUAL BRIEF
God's word refers to the advance spiritual knowledge, of his faithful servants, as the treasure in earthenware vessels. This is about the clay cylinders that copies of scrolls were stored in to preserve God's Word, down through the ages. In human vessels, God's word is preserved uniquely. Their many years of studying His word, and sharing in the Global Preaching work, give them advanced knowledge and insight, into the whole scope of truth. Psalm 12:6; "The sayings of Jehovah are pure;+
They are like silver refined in an earthen furnace,*
purified seven times." As they advance more and more in the years, his word is clarified to them that much more. 2 Corinthians 4;6-10 states; "For God is the one who said: “Let the light shine out of darkness,”+
and he has shone on our hearts to illuminate them with the glorious knowledge of God by the face of Christ.+
7 However, we have this treasure+ in earthen vessels,+ so that the power beyond what is normal may be God’s and not from us.+ 8 We are hard-pressed in every way,+ but not cramped beyond movement; we are perplexed, but not absolutely with no way out;*+ 9 we are persecuted, but not abandoned;+ we are knocked down, but not destroyed.+ 10 Always we endure in our body the death-dealing treatment that Jesus suffered,+
that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our body"
