They were born dead. and needed to be born again

Your going against the very words of Jesus man.. Give this up...
They were born legally Justified, sanctified, redeemed, had nothing to do with anything they did, for they didnt exist yet. I didnt say they were born spiritually alive , they weren't, they were born dead in sin, but leagally alive to God and Justified.

dude, Your stuck on one verse.

you ignored every verse I gave you which proves you wrong

By the one sacrifice. Those people who TRUSTED God had the opportunity. because his one act of obedience gave them the ability to trust God.
That one verse condemns your unbelief, people who Christ died for are made righteous by that One act of Obedience Rom 5:19

19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

You dont believe, and your not dead, And now as you live, you are denying the saving efficacy of Christs death, which frankly is blasphemy and unbelief.
Your saying God is a respector of person's and denying that Christ did not die for the sin of unbelief.

which is mischaracterising God.

thats bad in so many ways

if they were justified. then they would be alive

Justification means ones sins are forgiven.. It is what happens when we are saved, and is the reason one is made alive..

And as I proved. MANY WILL BE MADE RIGHTEOUS

WHEN THEY BELIEVE

Thats wrong

if he did, they would be born alive in christ. and not need to believe in God and be born again
No it is not wrong, what is wrong is that you deny Christ died for all the sins of them He died for. That's a denial of the Gospel big time!

Don't have to be alive to be legally justified, you don't have to be alive for Christ to die for one's sins either. You lack understanding

We are dead because of sin

if we are justified. The penalty of sin is removed, hence we are alive

you should study the judicial system, when one is justified (found innocent of wrong doing) then their penalty is removed.
