ISB ~ Galatians 5 v24
crucified the flesh:Baptism unites believers with the saving death of Jesus, so much so that Paul says we are “crucified with Christ” (2:20; cf. Rom 6:3-4). In addition to receiving forgiveness, we die to our former way of life through the Spirit, who gives us new strength to master our passions and selfish desires (Rom 7:21-8:2) (CCC 2543, 2848).
