Hebrew for Christians Only Yeshua can help us die to ourselves - to let go of the self life and to be set free from the tyranny of what we naturally are... The old nature is never reformed by religion but is put to death by a supernatural act of God, as it says: I have been crucified (συνεσταύρωμαι) with Messiah; it is no longer I who live, but Messiah 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). By faith we trust that we already have been crucified with him, just as by faith we trust that we already have newness of life, though all this is only theoretical unless and until the Spirit of God makes it real in our lives. Only the LORD can put a new heart within us; only God can make the new I walk in the flesh; only the Spirit can breathe upon dry bones raised from the dust to make them live (Ezek. 37:5).
