Life Through Death



Galatians 2:19-20 (ESV Strong's)

19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.


Jesus fulfilled the law. The law brings death to man by exposing our sin to the light and life of God. Christ entered the darkness of our death that we might follow him into the light of life. 


We remain in the same bodies of mortal flesh, but with spirits made alive in Christ. We do so by loving him through the giving of ourselves to him. In doing so, we become the generations of heaven and earth, for we are one.
