In context

18 For if I put up again those things which I gave to destruction, I am seen to be a wrongdoer.

19 For I, through the law, have become dead to the law, so that I might be living to God.

20 I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.

21 I do not make the grace of God of no effect: because if righteousness is through the law, then Christ was put to death for nothing.
