This is Romans 6-8, condensed into one verse. Notice the first half of the verse summarizes our death and resurrection with Christ. But the latter half of the verse focuses on our life of faith in Christ as our enabler. Progressive sanctification or, we could say, the resurrected life is by faith. That doesn t mean we sit back passively and do nothing. It means we trust our Lord to enable us in our doing! Paul makes very clear that sanctification is by faith.

It is no longer self that takes charge it is the son of God living his life through me

Which answer best describes your relationship with the Lord? a. I have been saved. b. I am being saved. c. I will be saved. d. all of the above. Of course, the correct answer for all born again children of God is d. all of the above. The extent of your reward or loss at the Judgment Seat will be determined by the extent to which your soul is saved in this life. credit James Hollandsworth the Three Tenses of Salvation

Bill's comment on 2014-10-18 10:09:24:

"Biblical sanctification is the lifelong process of learning to let Christ live His life through us. It is summed up well in Galatians 2 20. As one submits to the process, he grows spiritually. If one does not understand the process correctly or refuses to yield to the Holy Spirit s working in his life, growth will be stunted. Ongoing, experiential sanctification and spiritual growth are, therefore, closely related concepts.

The Light of Life's comment on 2014-08-10 12:56:54:

He is in us living for us. Who missed it? We are in Him too. Try to steer myself away from future sin someone said? I say "behold the lamb of God who taketh AWAY the sins of the world ". He is living for me. Not I. Men get this so mixed up. It 's not a call to be righteous by a law that justifies no one. ....it 's unchangeable reality! We do not make ourselves Holy. He makes us Holy. Get it right then "Shine your light ". He is the light. See where is says we "live " by faith. Faith in us ? so backwards Faith In Him! Glory to God.

Rich's comment on 2014-06-18 18:50:45:

Paul just told it how it is. He died with Christ at Calvary, and was raised with Him. Not hypothetically, or charismatically, but in reality. He brought every thought into obedience, and spoke what God would have him say. A dead man animated by the sprit of Christ. A living sacrifice with the fire of the Holy Spirit on the sacrifice.

The life that I live is in Christ as he is in me.I do nothing with out him through faith.

My real life is in Christ Jesus as he is in me.

Linda's comment on 2014-02-02 07:22:18:

My sinful life must be dead thru Christ to find TRUE life. We must be born again...ask for forgiveness(and mean it) and actively turn away from future sin. We must do all this having the faith that God is living in us and helping us.

Arran Plump's comment on 2014-01-29 06:38:42:

I died when Jesus was Killed/Gave himself for me. Nevertheless,when He(Jesus)rose I also rose to live a new life.Living in faith not by old traditions,rituals,and religion.Yet by believing,trusting,Living,and walking in the power of the Blood of the Lamb. Amen BE BLESSED Arran De

Samson.'s comment on 2013-11-23 15:09:55:

It is a great scripture that Paul was describing his experience of conversion by removing the old Adam, natural body, which is the source of sin was crucified by punting on Christ, as it was stated in Galatians 3:20. So this means the life he live in in flesh in only by faith that he has in the son of God. It is powerful. for in other part also he mentioned he is dead and his life was hidden in Christ.Blessings!

Thank You Lord for thought of me above all.

Chris's comment on 2013-10-06 07:57:04:

Hi. As I read the different versions and renderings of Gal. 2:20, I am struck by the differences in one little word. Here is the difference I see: "...I live by faith IN the Son..." denoting it is MY FAITH IN HIM, or, it is by HIS faith-NOT and my faith by which I live. I hope I did a good job explaining myself. If not, I will try again.
