John 5:24-25 NIV
24 “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life. 25 Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live.
It is possible to walk upright, to be alive in the mortal sense and be dead to God in the spiritual sense.
Those who have never seen the light do not know of light. For them darkness is the norm and is familiar. They know their way around and are comfortable. Light is foreign to them, and the word without meaning.
How does one cross over from death to life? Hearing the word which is the light of the world, for it is life. Seeing the light and then living in the light. It is the cross that enables us to cross over. God has freed us and enables through the sacrifice of Jesus on a cross long ago.
