'Dead' in the Bible

He demonstrated this power in the Messiah by raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His right hand in the heavens—

And you were dead in your trespasses and sins

made us alive with the Messiah even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace!

for what makes everything clear is light. Therefore it is said:Get up, sleeper, and rise up from the dead,and the Messiah will shine on you.
