Galatians 2:20 - Crucified with Christ | Andrew Farley

A quick reflection on my favorite verse in Scripture. Thanks for watching.

[mr.sherlockholmes]

I have a ring with a cross on a shield and it has this verse on it . Thank you for this amazing lesson so true we have to let our old life die and the life with our lord Jesus take over . I love Jesus and he is my all . Thank you for this wonderful lesson

[deloresfurry]

Christ lives in all of us that believe in him. We all have a spark in our hearts that he put there before we were born. I am Crucified with Christ. Amen

Abba Father, in agreement with galatians 2:20 I cast out and cut off upon no return in my life all in my life and those surrounding me that is not crucified with Christ, in the name and by the blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!

[Harpazo_to_Yeshua]

My mother sent this video to me because she knew of something Jesus told me around 20 years ago, when I was sitting at my computer back then. I felt this nagging "pride" within me for some weird reason. I don't even remember what caused me to feel it. I did nothing special or "good" to warrant this feeling. I did not like this feeling so I prayed to Jesus "Lord, kill my pride?". About 15-20 minutes later, I felt it again, then I prayed again though a little more fervently: "Lord, kill my pride?!"

About 20-30 minutes later, I felt it yet again and I just had to really go at it in prayer "Lord, PLEASE kill my pride?!?"

He answered me (unexpectedly) out of no where: *"I can't. It's already dead. I Am Living My Life through you."* :)

I was surprised, really. Amazed, too!

So I told my mother about this over the years, and she remembered it, then saw this video you made here and sent it to me, thinking it related to my experience. I agree! So great to see!

And recently, about a month ago, I woke up about 5:30 in the morning and had this Spiritual experience with Jesus. I came away with simply saying "The flesh is past, Jesus is Present."

So I added that experience from 20 years ago ("It's already dead") to what was pressed upon me about a month ago "The flesh is past..." to come to the conclusion that Jesus (God) is outside of time. Jesus exists in Present Eternity. We, the flesh and this physical universe are "in time" and therefore in history, the past, in comparison to Jesus (in the actual Present). So our flesh (sin) truly is dead to us, it literally is history, dying on the cross with Jesus around 2000 years ago, and we are *PRESENTLY* with Jesus, Born of His *Spirit, * in Eternity.

This is how God (Jesus) saw the very end of time before He created the beginning of it! *He is outside of time!*

Then I came to this conclusion of Jesus wanting Children before He even created the universe, it all makes sense when seen in this light:

*It was planned from the very beginning: God wanted many to be Children of God in the future. Adam and Eve were merely human, not Children of God. The only way to be a Child of God is to be Born of the Holy Spirit - Born Again.*

*He knew Adam and Eve would sin and eat the apple from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. He knew that humans had to have FREE WILL to love Him back, unlike mindless robots. He knew that pride was a stumbling block, as seen by what happened to lucifer. So humans sinning (committing crime against God) would make them at fault, thus no room to rightly be proud unto themselves, therefore needing to submit before the MERCY of God for forgiveness, and one day that sacrifice (of Jesus, God in flesh) would come, that whosoever believes in Him shall be saved (and Born Again of the Holy Spirit), thus becoming a Child of God, not just human anymore. For the Child Born of God, the flesh is dead, Jesus is Present.*

*We're all witnessing the history of the Children of God. :)*

*God knows the future, for He is outside of time. God is in Present Eternity. God saw the very end of time before He even created it. It's obvious that He planned all of this out. Working with FREE WILL and PRIDE is a tough, long process, as you can see through all of the suffering and death humans have dealt over the millennia. It's all worth it, for He is gathering millions of Children in the process, and one day, all of this will be wiped out and He'll create a new Earth for us to live forever. :)*

Well done, keep it simple, and let God reveal His truth.

Love the picture! Thank you for a new revelation 🙏

[gracefaiths]

Awesome !!! Thanks Andrew Farley for this message...

[DenieceNikki]

I never thought of it like this!! I really, really like this!!

[robinworkman]

I think the King James says it best it's not really our faith it's the Faith of Christ living in US through that life-giving spirit. He truly is everything

[christianbrand]

This is amazing Truth! Praise the Lord Jesus!

[Liam-bzxz]

All goals and aspirations in this secular world isn’t as prioritized as much as it was in my former self who is now deceased. For my soul longs for Zion, that is where my true identity, and ultimately by the grace of God true citizenship and residence lies ultimately.

Great video! Greetings from Romania. 🙌

I posting this to put these verses up in context of this passage: Galatians 2, 3


2
1 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.

2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:

4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:

7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.

11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.

12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.

13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.

14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.

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.


21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Galatians 3


3 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.

5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.

22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.


This passage is about the grace of God through Jesus Christ. 2 :21 It is not about you giving yourself to him for salvation but it is about what he did for us, then in believing what He did for you; your sins were put on that cross with Him, so you are no longer attached to your sins and therefore clean before God, because of what Jesus did for you, not in you giving anything to Him. 3:2 The focus on salvation is always all on Jesus, not on what you are doing or how you are behaving. 3:10-16
How you behave in your Christlike walk is by letting the spirit of God direct you, and not your flesh.
2:20b 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.
We still live in the flesh until we die or the rapture.
To say salvation comes because you gave Him your life, is to be still under the law. Salvation is receiving His free gift. As you receive/believe in Him for the free gift; you are now wearing His name, 2:16, 3:27 he is eternal and so is every believer in Christ as their savior.

Thank you Andrew so true, my favourite has always be John 19:30 "IT IS FINISHED" One that it seems is such an issue and stumbling block with so many Christians for some reason?

[ruan]

lol I kept having nightmares and sleep paralysis on 2:20 am and I've searched 2:20 and this is what I find xD What does this mean ? or was it 2:22 well it was somewhere in that time line

[louisramirez]

I like this verse God I want to die in my sinful flesh and live in your holy Ghost spirit in Jesus' name. Please pray for me for life, find some love in myself, and continue to trust in God.

[garlandgoesch]

1Lohn 3:9 is also a wonderful verse.  Our new nature is of the seed(sperm) of God, and it cannot sin.  It is the old nature that does the sinning, any time we let it do so.  By the way, the cliché of giving our life to CHRIST is false in the first place.  We go the Christ to get life.  HE is the giver, not us.  What have we in our old nature to give to HIM.

[TonyShumway-hcqj]

That question what does it mean to you? As it was also asked what does the cross mean to you from another fellow believer in Christ who came to defend the man who wrote Galatians 2:20 as he was moved by the Spirit of Grace. The Cross will mean everything for all believers Hebrew Jewish Israelite Believers of Israel or even pagan secular Gentile Greek Believers of other countries like Egypt Samaria and so many others that came to be discovered long ago of old before and after Jesus Christ was crucified for the whole worlds sins on that cross the century the early church began.
