Death came into this world because of the sin which the first human committed. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden, sin entered humanity, and death became part of human life. Death reminds us that this world is temporary and that all people need God’s mercy and salvation. The bible teaches us from the book of Romans that sin entered this world through one man.
The Bible also shows that people die because human beings are not meant to live forever in a sinful condition. Our bodies grow weak, and life on earth has limits. However, God does not desire people to remain hopeless. Through Jesus Christ, God promises eternal life to those who believe in Him. Physical death is not the end for believers, because there is hope of resurrection and everlasting life with God.
