What does it mean to be spiritually bound?

In the sermon, it was illustrated that just as Lazarus was bound in grave clothes, spiritually dead individuals are bound by their sins and unbelief. The Lord Jesus came to set the captives free, which means His grace not only gives life but also liberates us from the shackles of our former way of life. He commands that we be loosed from the grave clothes that represent our past. The act of loosening implies a continuous process of sanctification, where believers are called to walk in the freedom of Christ, shedding the remnants of their old sinful habits.
