SPIRITUALLY DEAD (LOST)EPHESIANS 2:1-2

And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world,

according to the prince of the power of the air…

INFANTROMANS 8:9

However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But is anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,

he does not belong to Him.

IMMATURE1 Corinthians 3:1-2

Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by

the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ. I

gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you

are still not ready.

MATUREHebrews 5:14

But solid food is for the mature, who by constant

use have trained themselves to distinguish

good from evil.

DISCIPLE-MAKER/MULTIPLIERMatthew 28:19-20

the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey

everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very

end of the age.
