📍Most Christians have never been taught what actually gives sin its strength—and as a result, they keep battling the same struggles, never fully walking in the freedom Jesus paid for.In this episode of the Jesus Talk Podcast, we go Back to the Future—literally. Just like Marty McFly nearly erased himself from existence by messing with the past, many believers are unknowingly deleting their true identity in Christ by going back under the law.Scripture tells us that "the strength of sin is the law" (1 Corinthians 15:56), but what does that really mean? And why do so many sincere Christians still live like they’re under the old covenant, trying to earn what Jesus already finished?💡We’ll uncover the secret behind sin’s power—and how grace doesn’t just cover your failures, it empowers your freedom. If you’ve ever felt stuck, striving, or spiritually exhausted, this episode is for you.---🕓 CHAPTERS0:00 Intro1:24 Target Text2:51 Fly-By Verses4:26 Surprising Relationship (Between the Law and Sin)11:00 Wet Paint Sign12:20 The Law Is A Tutor14:54 Opportunity to Know Christ15:57 What If We Go Back (to the Law)20:53 Back To The Future29:16 Breakthrough32:35 Prayer---💬 What was your biggest takeaway from this message?
