Could it be any clearer? …From now on, think of it this way: Sin speaks a dead language that means nothing to you; God speaks your mother tongue, and you hang on every word. You are dead to sin and alive to God.
When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life. With his Spirit living in you, your body will be as alive as Christ's!
Even when we were dead (slain) by [our own] shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; [He gave us the very life of Christ Himself,
If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness
Spirit can be known only by spirit—God's Spirit and our spirits in open communion. Spiritually alive, we have access to everything God's Spirit is doing, and can't be judged by unspiritual critics. Isaiah's question, "Is there anyone around who knows God's Spirit, anyone who knows what he is doing?" has been answered: Christ knows, and we have Christ's Spirit.
For the word of God is alive and powerful.
Romans 6:6 Romans 8:9 Ephesians 2:5 Romans 8:10 1 Corinthians 2:14 Hebrews 4:12
The human spirit fails us unless the Holy Spirit fills us.
