Why is being spiritually alive important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Being spiritually alive is essential for Christians as it enables them to live according to God's will and partake in the fullness of life through Christ.

Being spiritually alive is crucial for Christians since it signifies the transformative power of God in their lives. As described in Ephesians 2:1, before we are quickened, we are dead in trespasses and sins, meaning we are unable to respond to God or understand spiritual truths. The spiritual resurrection through the new birth empowers believers to live a life that is pleasing to God. It fuels a desire for obedience and good works, not as a means to earn salvation, but as a natural response to the grace that has been bestowed upon them. This spiritual vitality fundamentally changes a believer's motivations, ensuring they are living according to God's purpose, ultimately leading to eternal communion with Him.
