Dead Things in Scripture

Dead Things in Scripture 

Dead living bodies:


Romans 8:10 


But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.


Dead bodies:


James 2:26 


As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.


John 5:28-29 


28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 


29 and come out—those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.


Dead works:


Hebrews 6:1 


Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God,


Hebrews 9:14 


How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!


Dead faith:


James 2:17 


In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.


James 2:20 


You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?


James 2:26 


As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
Dead sin:


Romans 7:8 


But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from law, sin is dead.
