How do we know that Jesus raises people from spiritual death?
Answered in 1 source
Jesus demonstrates His power to raise from spiritual death through His command in John 5:25.
The assertion that Jesus raises people from spiritual death is grounded in His own words in John 5:25, where He declares, 'the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live.' This statement reveals that Jesus possesses not only the power to physically resurrect but also the authority to grant spiritual life to those who are dead in sin. According to Ephesians 2:1, we are dead in trespasses and sins, highlighting our need for divine intervention. By His grace, Christ awakens hearts to respond and believe, accomplishing the spiritual resurrection that empowers His followers to live a new life in Him.
