How are believers made alive in Christ?

The resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of the believers' assurance of being made alive, both spiritually and for eternity. As laid out in 1 Corinthians 15:22, just as all die in Adam, those who are united to Christ in faith will be made alive. This 'being made alive' includes regeneration, which is a work of the Holy Spirit bringing about new life in the believer. This transformation not only guarantees eternal life but also empowers the believer to live in accordance with God's will. It underscores that salvation is entirely based on Christ's work, rather than any human effort, as He is the source of spiritual vitality and eternal hope.
