"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of the power may be of God and not out of us. " ( 2Cor 4:7 )
God shines in our hearts to give us a treasure, that it is the embodiment of God, Christ gave us life and all the glory. But we who contain this treasure, are no value and fragile vessels. Priceless treasure actually containeds in the worthless vessels! This makes no value vessels become ministers in the New Testament, having supreme valuable ministry. This is through the divine power in resurrection. The excellency of the power must belongs to God and not from us.
This treasure, the indwelling Christ, is dwelling in us, the vessels,is the source of the Christian life divine supply. New Testament apostles as ministers, beyond the power to rely on the treasure can live through the crucifixion life, so that they are able to manifest the resurrection of Christ's life which they supplied. Therefore, they will significantly make the truth known, so that the gospel could shine.

「但我們有這寶貝在瓦器裡，要顯明這超越的能力，是屬於神，不是出於我們。」( 林後4:7 )
神照在我們心裡，帶給我們一個寶貝，就是那是神的具體化身，作了我們的生命和一切之榮耀的基督。但我們盛裝這寶貝的，卻是沒有價值且脆弱的瓦器。
無價之寶竟盛裝在沒有價值的器皿裡！這使沒有價值的器皿成為新約的眾執事，有無上寶貴的職事。這乃是藉著在復活裡的神聖能力。
這超越的能力必是屬於神，不是出於我們。
這寶貝，內住的基督，在我們這些瓦器裡，乃是基督徒生活神聖供應的源頭。作新約執事的使徒，靠這寶貝超越的能力，就能過釘十字架的生活，使他們所供應基督復活的生命得以顯明。
因此，他們將真理顯揚出來，使福音得以照耀。(恢復本聖經註解)
