Galatians 2:20
It's Galatians 2:20 - look in your Bible or if you want to use your outline, it's in the second verse under #2 in your outline. Galatians 2:20. Let's read it aloud together:
"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me."

And the truth is the empowered life is the exchanged life. And that term or principle is throughout the scripture. We're going to look a number of verses of scripture that teach us this truth this morning so that we can understand it and apply it to our lives. The exchanged life.
And the first truth, roman numeral one, is that there is the great exchange on the cross. And this is so important that we understand what Christ came to do. Thousands of people had been crucified. Why was t ...
