What does the Bible say about personal sin?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that personal sin is the cause of spiritual death, as stated in Ezekiel 18:20, 'The soul that sinneth, it shall die.'

According to Ezekiel 18, personal sin is a serious matter that leads to spiritual death. The text emphasizes that each individual is responsible for their own sin and will face judgment based on their actions. The profound reality that 'the soul that sinneth, it shall die' signifies that God holds each person accountable for their sins, which is a fundamental aspect of sovereign grace theology. Moreover, the passage illustrates that blame-shifting, like the proverb recited by the Israelites concerning their ancestors, undermines personal responsibility and accountability before God.
