Galatians
2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
I believe He was thirty-three when He was crucified.
he was crucified so we could return to heaven and live with him.
No. The Jews who crucified Christ are dead. It was 2,000 years ago and Jews don't live that long.
In the book of Galatians, chapter 2 verse 20, Paul writes; "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives within me." Paul is telling the people in the Church in Galatia that since he has accepted Jesus Christ as his savior, Christs being crucified was for Paul's sins. (Ours too) Those of us that believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that he died to cleanse us of our sins, well our sins have been crucified with Jesus on the cross. So in a sense, we have been crucified with Christ. Our sins were taken upon Jesus. In regards to the "I no longer live, but Christ lives within me." Paul is saying that his old life or old ways are dead to him. He now has Jesus in his heart and that his life is lived according to Jesus. Jesus is in charge of his life. Jesus is in my life too. This doesn't mean that I or Paul are perfect. By no means. But since we have Christ in our lives, we strive to live out our lives as Jesus would have us.
Jesus is our moral living, for Galatians 2.20. says: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20 so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me. This means I identify with Christ in His death. Not only was He crucified on Calvary, the 'I' the 'me' was crucified there as well - in Him. This means the end of me as a sinner in God's sight. It means the end of me as a person seeking to do good things to earn salvation by my efforts. It means the end of me as a child of Adam, as a man under the condemnation of the law. The Savior did not die for me in order that I might go on living my life as I choose. He died for me so that from now on He might be able to live His life in me. The life which I now live in this human body, I live by faith in the Son of God. Faith means reliance or dependence. The Christian lives by continual dependence on Christ, by yielding to Him, by allowing Christ to live His life in him.

The Christian 'Good Friday' is about the day that Jesus Christ was crucified on the Cross to be the perfect sacrifice that we were unable to be. He gave his life that we might live.
