The verse

“I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me.”
Galatians 2:20 · WEB

From the tradition

“He can no longer have God for his Father, who has not the Church for his mother.”
