What does it mean that we are crucified with Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Being crucified with Christ means that the believer's sinful nature is put to death, allowing for a new life in Him.

Galatians 2:20 states that believers are crucified with Christ, which signifies a profound truth of the gospel. This crucifixion entails the death of the old self—a life controlled by sin and selfishness. In this union with Christ, believers experience His resurrection power that enables them to live a new life characterized by faith in the Son of God. The assurance of being risen with Him indicates that their past is fully dealt with, and they are now considered new creations, no longer slaves to sin but alive in Christ to walk in righteousness.
