St Paul Holding Gospel Iconographic | I am crucified with Christ (Galatians 2:20) | Orthodox Christian Black MugTheme: Do Not Be the Ruin of Your New Life in Christ 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. St. Paul's Epistle to the Galatians 2: 20 How, it is asked, can a man now living and breathing have been crucified? That Christ has been crucified is manifest, but how can you have been crucified, and

the Mother of God

and it holds him fast

that a man lay down his life for his friends

it is because he uses the body's humours to befog the intellect with the delight of mindless pleasures

without a companion

and our bodies

just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne

and say to the breath

but be careful about what will replace it

he had great possessions

the inhabitants began to turn only to Saint Panteleimon

“Orthodox Christians live today in one of the great critical times in the history of Christ's Church
