Summary

“God is still calling us to a process and a lifestyle of becoming everything He has created us to become, and by grace, He extends mercy to us every single day.” Continuing in our current collection of talks, Believer, Pastor Louie stresses that being a Christian is more about who you are than what you do. To be Christian, we are called to be Christ-like, love God, extend grace, shine light, and champion those in need. When we can be mirrors, reflecting the glory of God, others can see Christ. VERSES // John 1:14,3:16, Philippians 2:1-16, Galatians 2:20, 2 Corinthians 5:14, 1 Corinthians 1:23, Luke 10:27, Matthew 5:13-16

0:16.3	Pastor Louis Gaglia. The series of the collection of talks is called
0:22.5	Believer. And last week we asked a question, what does it mean to be Christian?
0:27.4	And I can't go back and pick that whole word up, but it's foundational for
0:33.6	us before we step into today. We ended up last week by saying to be Christian
0:39.1	is to wholeheartedly and exclusively trust in the person and the claims of
0:46.9	Jesus Christ, activating a new birth that results in a lifestyle that mirrors
0:55.8	his, that's Jesus, values teaching in ways so that others may see and know him.
1:08.5	Not an amen, not a yeah, not a I'm with you, not nothing, but that's okay because
1:13.4	we're in teaching mode so that's good. You can just be in learning mode. You're
1:17.5	like that's a long definition, isn't it just as simple as when the sense
1:21.2	this comes in the mail, it asks you what your religious preference is, there are
1:25.7	options there and you check a box, it says I identify as Christian. No, it's way

1:37.0	important which I encourage you to go back and get your head around and your heart
1:40.6	around is this idea of exclusive inclusivity. In other words, that Jesus is
1:49.7	opening the way of grace to everyone on planet earth. But as he opens the way of
1:58.5	grace to everyone on planet earth, he's saying that he is the way of grace. So he
2:07.2	Jesus makes exclusive claims about himself and about the way while he's
2:14.0	inviting everyone in the world to come and find him on the way. And that's what
