KJV ORIGINAL
Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
He's the one who made us capable of sharing this new promise with people — not by following rules word-for-word, but by understanding the heart behind them. Because sticking to just the written rules without the spirit behind them kills what matters, but the spirit brings everything to life.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
God didn't give us a rulebook to follow blindly — he gave us his heart to share with others.
