Gal 2:15“Although we’re Jews by birth and not non-Jewish ‘sinners,’
Gal 2:16 we know full well that we don’t receive God’s perfect
righteousness as a reward for keeping the law, but by the faith of Jesus, the
Messiah! His faithfulness, not ours, has saved us, and we have received
God’s perfect righteousness. Now we know that God accepts no one by the
keeping of religious laws!
Gal 2:17 “If we are those who desire to be saved from our sins through our
union with the Anointed One, does that mean our Messiah promotes our sins if
we still acknowledge that we are sinners? How absurd!
Gal 2:18 For if I start over and reconstruct the old religious system that I
have torn down with the message of grace, I will appear to be one who turns
his back on the truth.
Gal 2:19 “But because the Messiah lives in me, I’ve now died to the
law’s dominion over me so that I can live for God.
Gal 2:20 “My old identity has been co-crucified with Messiah and no longer
lives; for the nails of his cross crucified me with him. And now the essence
of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life
through me—we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith
of the Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, and
dispenses his life into mine!
Gal 2:21 “So that is why I don’t view God’s grace as something minor or
peripheral. For if keeping the law could release God’s righteousness to us,
the Anointed One would have died for nothing.”
