A look at 1 John 3.6

Without a context, I know there is a physical death and a second death.
As for a spiritual death, I would have to say I don't know.
Is dead in trespasses and sins a spiritual death ?

Yes.
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. (Romans 8:6).
To be carnally minded is to have condemned or sinful mind. People's mind or soul is carnal or is in a state of spiritual death. From this death Christ saves those who believe through the preaching of the Gospel, "Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls." (1 Peter 1:9).

Isn't it good to be Spiritually minded ? (rhetorical question)

Just a reminder that there are two different condemnations in Scripture. One is Positional Condemnation. That is what we are born with, we are born IN ADAM, and by this birth, we are born positionally qualified to be the recipients of God's benevolence and grace. There is also an Eternal Condemnation, which is the result of rejecting God's offer of salvation.

Rejecting the path of theosis is rejecting God's offer of salvation.
