which i

"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." Gal 2.20

Note, "it is no longer I who live" and "I now live". Which is it? Do I live or do I not live?

It is "I" who died and now it is a different "I" who lives (2 Cor 5.17; Eph 2.5-6). Our old self is dead (Rom 6.6) and now a new self lives. A self who can do all things prepared beforehand by the Father (Phil 4.13; Col 1.29; Rom 15.18; Eph 2.10).

Which life are you living?
