How do we know that death is a result of sin?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture explicitly states that death entered the world through sin, as noted in Romans 5:12.

The connection between sin and death is made clear in Romans 5:12, which says, 'Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.' This passage shows that Adam's disobedience brought death into humanity, establishing that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). The biblical understanding does not separate physical death from spiritual disobedience; rather, they are intrinsically linked. Paul elaborates in 1 Corinthians 15:56, stating, 'The sting of death is sin,' asserting that the separation from God due to sin ultimately results in physical death.
