The word crucify means to kill someone by placing them on a cross. They then die a long, horrible death. The person was either tied or nailed to a cross. Crucified people died from losing blood and from not being able to breath while on the cross.

Paul taught that Christians need to “crucify” themselves. This is a metaphor. It means that the same way a dead person no longer can do anything, a Christian is to stop doing the things they did before that did not honor God. They need to start doing the things that honor God. Christians now live a new life (see: Romans 6:6; Galatians 2:20; 5:24; 6:14). In the same way a baby learns to do new things, a Christian is to learn to do the things that honor God.
