How do we know our sin nature affects our relationship with God?

Answered in 1 source

Our inherent sin nature separates us from God, as it is through Adam's disobedience that sin and death entered the world.

In understanding our condition before God, Scripture clarifies that our sin nature is a result of Adam's transgression. Romans 5 explains that as 'by one man sin entered into the world', we are all affected by sin, leading to spiritual death. This separation indicates that we cannot restore our relationship with God through our efforts or good works; rather, we must rely on Christ to reconcile us to the Father. The serious nature of sin emphasizes our desperate need for salvation and the necessity of faith in Christ to overcome this distance.
