The problem with hard hearts, stiff necks, and rigid people is… they’re fragile. They break too easily. Like the Ten Commandments inscribed on tablets of stone, they are easily shattered. Paul referred to this problem as “the ministry of death”…
“Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory… will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory?” (2nd Corinthians 3.7a, 8).
