How do we know that we are spiritually dead before receiving Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals that all people are born dead in sin, unable to turn to God without His intervention.

Ephesians 2:1 outlines that every person is born spiritually dead in trespasses and sins. The sermon illustrates this truth through the character of the demoniac in Mark 5, who, although alive physically, was living among tombs, symbolizing his spiritual state. Only a divine intervention, where Christ commands, 'live,' can bring true life. Thus, believers recognize their past condition and celebrate their newfound life as a result of Christ's redemptive work.
