Galatians 2:18-20

Expanded Bible

¹⁸ But I would ·really be wrong [or prove myself to be a lawbreaker/sinner] ·to begin teaching again those things that I gave up [^Lif I rebuild those things I tore down; ^Cdependance on the law for salvation]. ¹⁹ ·It was the law that put me to death [or Trying to keep the law condemned me to death; ^LFor through the law I died to the law], and I died to the law so that I can now live for God [^Cno longer depending on the law for salvation, Paul now depends on God’s grace]. ²⁰ I ·was put to death on the cross [^Lhave been crucified] with Christ, and I do not live anymore—it is Christ who lives in me. I still live in my ·body [flesh], but I live ·by faith in [or because of the faithfulness of] the Son of God who loved me and gave himself ·to save me [^Lfor me; on my behalf].
