📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 2:1-7
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning my friends we are back with the morning mindset edition of |
| 0:06.8 | Live Build Change and I am so I don't know what else to say except enthused excited jazz about the truth that we're |
| 0:16.7 | digging into here here in Ephesians chapter 2 because we're digging into some things that I |
| 0:21.9 | believe if we understand correctly and |
| 0:25.1 | understand literally can really change our lives because what you believe will |
| 0:31.5 | dictate the way that you live. |
| 0:33.6 | Have you discovered that in life? |
| 0:35.6 | What you believe will dictate the way you live. |
| 0:38.2 | And so if we are believing something from scripture |
| 0:41.2 | to be metaphorical or symbolic. It tends not to have a huge |
| 0:48.0 | impact on us because we're believing it's a symbol. It's not a real thing. But what if that very thing was actually something that was |
| 0:55.9 | meant to be believed literally, and is meant to be saying something very intentional about us, about who we are and the position we have in God's |
| 1:07.6 | family. |
| 1:09.3 | That has the potential to change the way that we live because it's a belief based on something that is real, |
| 1:15.0 | something that is true. And so we've been looking at Galatians chapter 2 and |
| 1:19.7 | digging into this chapter with that mindset to find what is true here, |
| 1:24.6 | what is meant to be taken literally. And we've discovered that prior to placing our faith in Jesus Christ |
| 1:30.8 | we were dead in our sin. Our spirit was dead. It's not that we just |
| 1:36.2 | weren't interested in God. There's a reason that we weren't interested in God. |
| 1:40.3 | And it's because we were dead in our sins. We didn't have the capacity to be |
| 1:44.9 | truly interested in God. But it says in verse four, but God being rich in |
| 1:50.9 | mercy and because of the great love with which he loved us. |
