even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—

EXPLANATION

Verse 5. Quickened us together in Christ. Faith, baptism, and grace, are pledges of our future resurrection and glorification in heaven. Our present conversion is also a kind of resurrection. The time is come, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear shall live. Saint Augustine upon Saint John, No. 7.
