Seated "With" Christ?

Ephesians 2:6

I don't know about most people, but whenever I have read this verse previously, I always thought the portion that says,

"And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus" vs. 6

implied that "God raised us up (from the dead) with Christ..." etc.

BUT! If you read verse 5, it already covers the fact that we have BEEN made alive with Christ! So, what then does the word "raised" signify in verse 6?

I believe it means that, just as Christ ascended physically into Heaven, so God has likewise raised us up, lifted us up, so that, just as Christ has been seated at the right hand of God with authority, power, and right-standing, we are likewise seated WITH Christ!!!

What a powerful truth!
