    This is the introduction to one of the most powerful sermons ever taught or preached. Jesus gives the hearer the basis of what it means to be a Christian, a follower of Christ. It represents the whole of the Christian character.

    During the Last Supper, Jesus tells disciples that they are not of this world. And in the epistles, we see that Christians are dead to sin. In this message, we look at what it means to be dead but spiritually alive.
