# Galatians 2:20 and Eternal Life **Galatians 2:20** states: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me" (NIV). This verse teaches that eternal life begins when believers identify with Christ's death and resurrection, resulting in a transformed existence where Christ lives within them. The Christian life is no longer self-directed but is sustained by faith in Jesus, who sacrificially died to make this new, eternal life possible.
