Everyone Who Does Not Have Christ Ephesians 2:1,5; Colossians 2:13 and I John 5:12
Ephesians 2:1 Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins.
5 that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)
Colossians 2:13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins.
I John 5:12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life.
Those Seeking Personal Pleasure Ephesians 4:17-19 and I Timothy 5:6
Ephesians 4:17-19
17 With the Lord’s authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused.
18 Their minds are full of darkness; they wander far from the life God gives because they have closed their minds and hardened their hearts against him.
19 They have no sense of shame. They live for lustful pleasure and eagerly practice every kind of impurity.
I Timothy 5:6 But the widow who lives only for pleasure is spiritually dead even while she lives.
Those Not Serving God By Good Works Hebrews 6:1; Hebrews 9:14 and Revelation 3:1-2
Hebrews 6:1 So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God.
Hebrews 9:14 Just think how much more the blood of Christ will purify our consciences from sinful deeds so that we can worship the living God. For by the power of the eternal Spirit, Christ offered himself to God as a perfect sacrifice for our sins.
Revelation 3:1-2
1 “Write this letter to the angel of the church in Sardis. This is the message from the one who has the sevenfold Spirit of God and the seven stars: “I know all the things you do, and that you have a reputation for being alive—but you are dead.
2 Wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is almost dead. I find that your actions do not meet the requirements of my God.
