Mankind, apart from a personal, covenant relationship with God through faith in Christ, is spiritually dead and eternally doomed, but if he hears and believes the word of God, concerning the gospel of Christ, he is brought to spiritual life by the same power that raised Christ from the dead. He not only has a home in heaven for all eternity, but he is now a son of God, and heir of God, and a joint-heir with Christ. To top it all off, nothing is impossible to him, because all things are possible to him that believes.
