Summary

How would life change if we truly grasped that our old self isn't being renovated but has been completely replaced? Hello friends, welcome to the Brilliant Perspectives podcast. This week, we're concluding our series by exploring the radical truth that God isn't working on our old nature—He crucified it. Graham reveals how our new identity in Christ comes with a new lens, a new mindset, and a new language that elevates us to live above the line of our privilege. Let's jump in with Graham.

Key Scriptures

+ Romans 6:6-8. "Knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him... Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him..."

+ 2 Corinthians 5:17. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new..."

+ Colossians 3:1-3. "If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God..."

+ Ephesians 2:6. "And raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus..."
