I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Galatians 2:20
Remember those old wanted posters in western movies. Frequently they were "Wanted Dead Or Alive." Well, God's wanted poster for us is a little different. It is "Wanted Dead And Alive." God wants us to be crucified with Christ, and be dead to the flesh, dead to the Law, and dead to ourselves. At the same time, we alive to the Spirit, with Christ living in our dead bodies. He gave Himself up for us. Now it is our turn to give ourselves up for Him.
