Think of your decision to get baptized in a similar way, & read Romans 4:11,16; 2:29, 26, 28-29.
The physical evidence of Abraham’s faith was shown after God had already recognized his Spiritual circumcision in Genesis 17:23.

Meaning, before we “do” anything, God gives us credit based on our thoughts & decisions. What does this mean to you?
Well, as far as salvation goes, God judges what we decide to do before any visible actions occur.

God is all knowing, He can read our minds & know if we are sincerely committed. For more, research Hebrews 8:10; Romans 4:2-5,20-25. Who was “delivered for our offences”?
See Hebrews 9:13-15, to find who covered our offences, transgressions, or sins (since we are studying Sin & Death).
See Hebrews 9:13-15, to find who covered our offences, transgressions, or sins (since we are studying Sin & Death).
So, we can form some conclusions about the "Law of Sin & Death". Now see how the Spirit makes us reflect the perfect image of our Lord Jesus in 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 & Galatians 2:20.
We also know the "law" (in context) is not limited to the 10 Commandments, but is about do-ing to live eternally by Leviticus 18:5.
You should be able to explain Galatians 3:21-25 now.
