Galatians 2:20

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

I have been crucified with Christ
Romans 6:6-7 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with (rendered powerless), that we should no longer be slaves to sin--because anyone who has died has been freed from sin.
Galatians 5:24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
Galatians 6:14 May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Romans 6:8-10 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
Romans 7:6 But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

I no longer live but Christ lives in me
Romans 8:10 But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.
1 Peter 4:2 As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God.

I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me
Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

and gave himself for me
Galatians 1:4 ... who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age according to the will of our God and Father, ...
1 Timothy 2:6 ... who gave himself as a ransom for all men--the testimony given in its proper time.
Titus 2:14 ... who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
