Gal 2:17 But if, in our endeavour to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I rebuild what I tore down, I prove myself to be a transgressor.
19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 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 were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

Gal 2:17 When we Jews started looking for a way to please God, we discovered that we are sinners too. Does this mean that Christ is the one who makes us sinners? No, it doesn't! 18 But if I tear down something and then build it again, I prove that I was wrong at first.
19 It was the Law itself that killed me and freed me from its power, so that I could live for God. I have been nailed to the cross with Christ. 20 I have died, but Christ lives in me. And I now live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me. 21 I don't turn my back on God's undeserved kindness. If we can be acceptable to God by obeying the Law, it was useless for Christ to die.

What was it that Paul tore down?His OLD way of life
![Page 11: Galatians 2:17-21](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54b7a9644a79594b258b4614/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How does he describe it?• Living for human
approval (1v10)• Deep passion to
preserve the traditions of ancestors (1v14)
• Bondage (2v4)
![Page 12: Galatians 2:17-21](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54b7a9644a79594b258b4614/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
20 In fact my old way of life has been crucified with Christ. That life has ceased to exist. What is happening now is that Christ is providing a new life within me. The life I am now living is an expression of faith in Christ who loved me and gave himself for me.

Can you hear the finality in this statement. CRUCIFIEDCEASED TO EXIST

So …when you look into God’s mirror today what do you see?
![Page 17: Galatians 2:17-21](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54b7a9644a79594b258b4614/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Is this statement true in my life or have I taken back some of what was “crucified”?
![Page 18: Galatians 2:17-21](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54b7a9644a79594b258b4614/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Turn to someone beside you and share just one thing that changes when you committed your life to Christ. Prayer for each other.
