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.
We are grafted into Christ's death as a twig draws sap from the root, and by this union we are freed from the curse and guilt of the law. Christ lives in us by His Spirit, governing our actions and imparting His righteousness, so that we who can do nothing of ourselves are accepted before God.

Peter came to Antioch eating freely with Gentile believers, as the Spirit had taught him; but when Jewish Christians arrived, he withdrew, and this hypocrisy I had to oppose to his face. His fault proved plainly that he was not superior to me, and so the papacy's claim to his infallibility falls to pieces.

Commenting on Galatians 2:11-21
Christ bore my sins in His crucifixion, and so I was crucified with Him in Him; their damning power was destroyed, and my affections mortified by His grace. I am now a paradox: dead to the law, yet alive in Christ; crucified with Him, yet living by the quickening influences of His Spirit in sanctification.
