What does it mean to live by faith in the Son of God?

Answered in 2 sources

Living by faith in the Son of God means trusting in His righteousness and presence in our lives, as expressed in Galatians 2:20.

In Galatians 2:20, the Apostle Paul speaks of believers living by the faith of the Son of God, which underscores the continuous reliance on Jesus for spiritual sustenance. This faith is not merely an initial act of belief but an ongoing, active trust in Christ's righteousness and His indwelling presence. Living by faith transforms how believers experience life; they are empowered to stand against sin and to bear fruit for God's glory. Furthermore, this faith assures believers that they are justified before God, meaning they are accepted not based on their works but solely through Christ's completed work. It emphasizes a relationship that is dynamic, involving daily reliance on Christ's life within them.
