    Questions about Galatians 2:20

    What does 'Christ lives in me' mean in Galatians 2:20?

    On December 29, 2026, Galatians 2:20 says I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. Union is not a mood of closeness. It is his life in place of the old self.

    Does the old self disappear automatically?

    The verse says you have been crucified with Christ, and it still has to be lived. One choice today can be his rather than the old master's. Union is practiced, not only described.

    What choice should be his today?

    The next one you would have made from habit, pride, or fear. Pray Galatians 2:20 over it and let Christ live in that decision.
