📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
GALATIANS 2:20-21 - I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness[a] were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning again. Welcome back to Morning Mindset. Are you ready to get your mind |
| 0:07.6 | engaged with the truth of God so that you can think rightly about God and about yourself, about the day, about the people around |
| 0:16.6 | you, and therefore be able to engage with life, not just be a passive spectator, but to be an active participant in the life God |
| 0:25.6 | has ordained for you today. You can do that. You can choose today to center your |
| 0:31.3 | thoughts around the truth of God and based on that truth |
| 0:34.6 | engage with the world in faithful, bold, and powerful ways and that's what the |
| 0:39.3 | morning mindset is all about. We're still looking at Galatians 2 20 and 21 and the reason we're |
| 0:46.5 | still looking at it is because it's two verses that are just packed with |
| 0:50.2 | essential truth for you as you think about living out a life as a Christ follower. |
| 0:56.0 | What does that look like to follow Jesus, to do the things Jesus would do, to live the kind of life Jesus would live? Well the answer is found in these |
| 1:05.4 | verses. These verses tell us we don't live a life like Jesus would live. We live |
| 1:10.8 | life by letting Jesus live through us. That's what these verses say. |
| 1:15.2 | Paul says the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the son of God who |
| 1:19.4 | love me and gave himself for me. And why is that possible? |
| 1:22.8 | Because in the previous sentence he says it's no longer I who live |
| 1:26.8 | but Christ who lives in me. |
| 1:29.1 | So that's the truth we're focusing on this morning. |
| 1:32.2 | And he goes on in the next verse and I wanted to focus in |
| 1:35.0 | on this today because we have so much problem living a free life and what I mean of that is a life free of obligation, free of guilt, free of a feeling that we've got to perform in order to get people to love us, because to get God to love us, to get ourselves worthy enough. But see the fact is |
| 1:57.3 | Paul says here in verse 21 he says I do not nullify the grace of God for if righteousness were through the law then Christ |
| 2:05.3 | died for no purpose. What the heck does that mean? Nullify the grace of God. What does that |
| 2:10.9 | mean? Well the grace of God has come to us through Jesus. |
