Rom. 8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also
give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

The apostle Paul is not speaking of a future resurrection here, he is talking about a resurrection in our mortal bodies daily, through our sinning and killing the life of Christ Jesus in us. Sinning is death, but it is also darkness, darkness to Christian's is as important as the life of Christ Jesus in us, but why?

In darkness of Adam sin, that sometime we do willingly as mislead Christians we find our growth, but how? Simply put, we are dead and faithless in sin, Christ then bring our life back through power of his eternal life given to us by God's love. This is a resurrection as real as our final resurrection we will receive at the physical death of our bodies on earth. Once we are back in life, we can spiritually comprehend the power of sin and our sinful thoughts. Which, lesson is that life does not come from sin, we now understand the power of being perfected in love. But moreover, we understand that this perfecting of love requires darkness until we are perfected in the light of God's love to us.

It is the Spirit that dwells in us that is the life, the same Spirit of Christ Jesus puts too death the sinful thoughts of our flesh, but it cannot be done without suffering in our flesh through darkness and light daily.

Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am Yahweh, who does all these things.
