Col 3:1-3 How can one be risen with Christ and yet be dead?
The word dead here refers to sin, the law, and the things of this world.
Upon their conversion to Christ believers spiritually entered into His death and resurrection.
His was a physical resurrection out from among the physically dead.
Theirs was a spiritual resurrection out from among the spiritually dead and from a state of spiritual death, into that of spiritual life.
They died to their former sin nature and now have the nature of Christ ... for ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God (CP 2:20; Ro 6:2-4, 6-7, 11-13; 7:4-6; Ga 2:19-20; 1Pe 2:24).
