In this episode, Jennie dives into Galatians 2:19-21, verses that reveal a significant shift in a believer's approach to life. Historically burdened by many laws and regulations, individuals strived to attain righteousness through stringent adherence to rules. But we see a transformative revelation here, emphasizing that trying to achieve righteousness through the law is futile. Through the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and the subsequent exchange of His righteousness for our shortcomings, a new way of life is unveiled—a life lived for God, guided by faith and a deep connection with Him.
