In this lesson we shall consider the various doctrines of the dead under six main headings: Physical Death, Spiritual Death, Immortality, the Intermediate State, the Five Departments in the Underworld of Departed Spirits, and Eternal Death.

I. Spiritual Death (Eph. 2:1-10)

1. What is spiritual death? It is simply the separation of man from God because of sin. “But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear” (Isa. 59:2). “And you hath he quickened [made alive, resurrected] who were dead in trespasses and sins . . . even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Eph. 2:1-10). Adam's penalty was death the day he sinned. This could not refer to physical death, for he lived 930 years after that day. It could only refer to spiritual and eternal death because of being cut off from God by sin. Adam's soul lost life the day he sinned.
