Our Spiritual Condition Before Christ by Apostle Alton R. Williams reveals that we are all dead, lost, and separated from God before salvation. Once we accept Christ as Lord and Savior, we move from death to life. This is like going from Death Valley to Mount Everest, or from being on death row to being the President of the United States. The way we were before Christ helps us gain a greater appreciation for Christ and God’s amazing grace.
