UNVEILED pt. 2

2 Corinthians 3:18
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the

When Moses saw God’s glory - WHO GOD IS, his face began to radiate.

But the people of Israel were afraid of this that Moses now began to put a veil just to cover his shining face.

The apostle Paul made a reference to this event to remind the corinthian church that the old covenant of the law which had a fading glory, is now surpassed by the new covenant of the Spirit which glory will never fade!

The unveiling happens when we look at Christ and it clearly reveals to us 3 things…

1. Because the veil was removed, we can see God’s glory in the face of Christ! (2 Cor. 4:6)

2. Because the veil was removed, we can see the transformation naturally happens! (2 cor. 3:18)

3. Because the veil was removed, we can see who we are (identity) and who he is (gospel)!

And in the 1st and 2nd chapters of 2 Corinthians, the apostle Paul introduces to us a kind of COMFORT that only God can give us not as the world or anyone can give (2 Corinthians chapters 1 and 2)

A comfort that makes us STABLISHED, reminds us that we are SEALED and shows us we are STANDING because of faith together with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

A new kind of comfort that includes God’s forgiveness and confirmation of His love towards us.

This new kind of comfort removes satan’s grip of offense and hurt in our hearts.

A new kind of comfort that embraces the heart of the offended and heals the heart of the offender.

AIM church, with a veil this is difficult and almost impossible to see. But we have turned to the Lord, our hearts have believed in the Gospel, the veil has been removed!

Let this NEW COMFORT heal you today, embrace your heart and let God’s comfort confirm His so great love for you.

God bless you AIM church family!

We are rooted in good soil. 🌱

Kahit anong pagyanig ang dumating sa buhay natin, kapag rooted tayo kay Lord, hindi tayo basta-basta natitinag.

When we are rooted in Him, His presence changes the way we live and affects the people around us.

That’s what it means to radiate His glory.

Think about the sun. Hindi natin nahahawakan, pero ramdam natin yung effect ng init at liwanag.

Ganoon din ang presence ni God. He dwells in us, and His presence should be evident in the way we live.

Nagshi-shine tayo, hindi dahil sa atin.
Nagra-radiate tayo, hindi dahil perfect tayo.
We reflect His glory because He is in us.

In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word for glory is “Kabod,” which carries the idea of weight and significance. It makes us ask: Who is He?

He is generous, gracious, great, merciful, and faithful.

In the New Testament, “Doxa” speaks of dignity and honor. This connects with 2 Corinthians 3:18, where Paul says that with unveiled faces, we look at the glory of the Lord and are transformed into His image from glory to glory.

The Word of God becomes like a mirror. Kapag tumitingin tayo sa salamin, nakikita natin kung ano ang nasa atin. Ganoon din when we look into God's Word. We see who He is, and He changes us to become more like Him.

What does it mean to have an unveiled face?
It means we no longer have to hide.

No more fear.
No more pretending.
No more running from God because of shame.

Because of Christ, the veil has been removed.

In Exodus 34, Moses came down from God's presence with his face shining. His encounter with God became visible.

And that's the invitation: to spend time in His presence until His character becomes visible in our lives.

Not so people will see how good we are, but so they can see how good He is.

When we receive His love, we reflect His love.
When we experience His grace, we extend grace.
When we encounter His glory, we radiate His glory.

Rooted in Him. Transformed by Him. Radiating His glory. 🤍

In the middle of the storm, we are still victorious in Christ. 🙏🏻

Keng aldong makasubuk tamu, e tamu pu magdili-dili.
Misasanmetung tamu king panalangin para keng balang pamilya, komyunidad, at Pampanga.

May we find strength in God, peace in His presence, and hope in His promises.

“Mapalad ing bansang ing Ginu ya ing Dios na.”
Psalm 33:12

Sabe-sabe tamu pung manalangin.
Para kareng pamilya.
Para keng Pampanga.
Para keng Pilipinas. 🇵🇭

We pray for protection.
We pray for strength.
We pray for peace. 🤍

May God cover our land, calm every anxious heart, and give strength to those in need.

To our AIM Family affected by the floods and heavy rains, we are praying with you and for you. You are not alone. 🫶🏻

Ing Diyos ya ing kanlungan at kalakasan tamu. Amen.

Ephesians 3:17-18
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,

Minsan, familiar na tayo sa thought na “Mahal tayo ng Diyos,” pero tanong: kinikilig ka pa ba sa love Niya? Do you still allow yourself to be amazed that God loves you?

God’s love is not something we have to earn. He already gave it to us through Christ. His love was revealed at the cross, received through grace, and we also get to experience it through the people He placed around us.

GOSPEL OF CHRIST

The Gospel may sound basic, pero dapat center ng buhay natin.

When I am rooted in the Gospel, hindi na nakabase ang identity ko sa performance ko, sa failures ko, or sa kung gaano ako kagaling.

My identity is rooted in Christ.

Because I know the Gospel, I can have peace even when life isn’t peaceful.

Hindi ibig sabihin na wala nang problems. It means I don’t have to let my circumstances control my heart.

I have received God’s peace, so I can also become a peacemaker.

In summary:
The Gospel means: God loves you, and He is not angry with you.

GOSPEL OF GRACE

Grace is undeserved, unearned, and unmerited.

Minsan feeling natin kailangan muna nating ayusin ang sarili natin bago tayo lumapit kay God. But grace reminds us:

“Come as you are.”

Sa weakness, sa failures, sa moments na hindi mo na alam gagawin—His grace is still enough.

Pero grace doesn’t give us an excuse to keep sinning. Instead, grace makes us love Jesus more and desire to live differently.

Acts 20:24
24 But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.

Hindi nagtatapos sa atin ang Gospel.

If I have received His love, I can love others.
If I have received grace, I can extend grace.
If I have received peace, I can bring peace.
If I have received the Gospel, I can share it.
