Galatians 2:20

Galatians 2:20

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

This verse is a favorite verse among many believers it is dealing with our position in Christ which many saints unfortunately don’t understand.  The verse tells us that we are dead in Christ and our life in the flesh is no longer alive instead we have Christ living in us and our life in the flesh should be different.  Christ lives is in us through the Spirit and for this reason we should think differently and act differently.  As we understand the doctrine of being dead in Christ and having Christ’s life living in us we then need to walk in that truth.  It is the practical aspect and understanding that NOW the life which I live in the flesh I want to live by the faith of Christ and not by my own power or strength.  We cannot live this life on our own but we have to let Christ live it through us and the way we do this is by the daily intake of God’s word.


Rejoicing in Grace,
Keith
