Col.2:13 You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 2:14 wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us; and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross; 2:15 having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

To be dead, and not be dead, the walking dead? Life is everywhere upon this earth, abundant life, peoples lives a full of life, family, friends, surrounded by living things, and yet when compared to God's world in the spirit realm we are dead, but how? This is real difficult even to many that profess Christianity that are born into this world under sin who are dead to God's world, and life in that world.

Isaiah 6:5 Then I said, "Woe is me! For I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh of Armies!"

Isaiah 6:7 He touched my mouth with it, and said, "Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin forgiven."

Luke 20:38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."

Many confuse life here with life in God's world in paradise, where exist no death, no sickness, no disease or anything causing pain, with sin in this world, such in not possible. What cause death? Sin that is the final word from God on the matter the never changing word of God throughout history of mankind's existence upon this planet.

Romans 5:12 Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; and so death passed to all men, because all sinned.

Romans 5:17 For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.

Even though we still die, we have eternal life in the real world to come. However, mixing the two worlds pollutes the Spirit and truth of God's world with yeast of human reasoning that is conceived in death and bring forth death although it be surrounded by abundant life in this world. When one trespasses they are illegally on some else property without consent of the owner. The earth and all that is in it belongs to the Great God YHWH. He has never given up ownership or his sovereignty over our planet earth. Because we are born into sin, we trespass on God's property. In other words, there are rules for living on this earth setup by God for mankind everlasting life!

Psalms 97:9 For you, Yahweh, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.

Psalms 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.

However, God's rules are life, that is, eternal life, each person obeying the rules over his Kingdom will have eternal life, nothing lower, like life for a mere eighty years on earth and then death. But mankind cannot live righteously under God's royal laws because they are born into sin. Satan the Devil said mankind could live by his own laws. However, we find on our earth full of those rules and laws, but none have brought eternal life to human race. They are good laws protecting us from harm of others, but they are not life. In other words, when the God of life speaks a law or a rule for us they are words with life in them, because he is life, nothing but life. When mankind makes a rule it is death because all men are sinners they can go no further, they are nothing but death in their sins.

Matthew 16:25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.

John 1:4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

John 3:15 that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

Subsequently, God removed our judgment by rules of human under death and placed us into a new life, a life not having death in it, which life is the resurrected Son of God Christ Jesus. Christ than became life for the human race if we share in his life. No prophet before or after is “Life” the many have words of life spoken by God such as the holy writings of scriptures, or words of truth, from great men and woman, but none of them are life and speak life as did the Son of God, being the life.

John 4:14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."

John 5:26 For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.

John 5:39 "You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.

John 5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

Christ by dying in this life on earth proved faithful to the Father without sin. He was then rewarded with eternal life and incorruptible life, made into the image of his Father entrusted with all life for human on earth. He became the last Adam a life giving “spirit”! In Christ Jesus is life, and the door to life. So the question is before mankind, how does one not be a sinner when born into sin? Can a person remove yeast from bread once it is made, without making a new loaf? No!

1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

1 Corinthians 5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

God made the new loaf, in killing our flesh, removing its judgment by burying us in Christ, in his death, and raising us in his life. Making us part of the new lump of unleavened bread having no sin. This is why we must account ourselves dead to sin, though our flesh rages against us daily for us to sin. If a person is dead, the laws of a country are invalid over them, they cannot prosecute a dead person. Law go as far the living to punish them. If God has killed you in the flesh than there is not judgment again of your flesh it is dead, put away buried, gone!

Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:9 knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him!

Romans 6:11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Once dead the life of a person is in God's adjudication, the sin is dead with the body because when it dies so goes it love, hates, jealous, wants, and needs, all it thoughts perish, which are things of the flesh and its lust. Those born again have received this provision of Christ life indwelling them while in their dying flesh upon this earth. Christ took all power away from everything man and Satan created to enslave them into death. No laws of this earth has power over Christ and his life, no laws of this earth are life, so they cannot benefit Christ or God's anointed in eating the unleavened bread of life which sustain our eternal life indwelling us, Christ Jesus. Christ strip the power of all authority on earth and in heaven by giving us his life, a life that must have God's law over it for eternal life, the Royal law that no human can produce or wicked spirit sons of God mimics, which Law is love. Love, the rule of law must come from incorruptible life for it must be pure without one spot or blemish of darkness - sin, it must be unwavering in righteousness, truth, and goodness, this food is the source of life that will flow to all mankind setting creation free. Such power and strength cannot be entrusted in mankind's hands, for their ways are corrupted being born into sin. They must be delivered out of darkness, by God's power to see the light, and walk in light, the flesh and its thinking ellipses the light causing death to this world alienated from the living light of God, Christ Jesus.

Romans 6:13 Neither present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 1:5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Revelation 21:24 The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.

Revelation 22:5 There will be no night, and they need no lamp light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.
