Ephesians 2:1-2
"And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according tot he course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience."
In order for Paul to help us understand the power of God, he reminds us of the power that we used to think was ultimate.
We were dead men in that power. We followed it, as some do today, blindly. All of our hope was there, in a power that fades away - and we did not even know it.
Then Christ.
It was like the eternal dawn. The sun rose and shut down the dark.
We will never return to that death.
