We were already alive
when we became aware of “life.” We’re alive when we become aware of death, that monster death. God reveals (in His Word) that life is a “teaser,” “an introduction” to real life SO much greater. He also reveals that death is also “an introduction” to a much worse death. It is natural to love life and hate death. Sin is unnatural. It tempts us to love death and to hate Life and its Source.
