My God and My Country

The Second Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the CorinthiansChapter 3 Verse 16
16 Nevertheless when their heart shall be turnedto the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. (a)
(a) Editor’s note - The veil of the temple separated the Holy of Holies from the people. In effect, it said that one could not approach the throne of God, (for our sins were such that God could not accept us in our imperfection), wherein was kept the mercy seat. Once our Savior died and became the sacrifice for all of our sins that curtain, that veil, was removed once and forever thus saying that our Creator has redeemed us from the curse of the Law.
