What does the Bible say about rules and consequences?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God established rules for humanity, and breaking these rules results in consequences.

In the Bible, rules serve as divine commandments that govern human behavior. The concept of rules is rooted in God's initial command to Adam in the Garden of Eden, where He set forth the one rule not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:16-17). Disobeying these rules results in consequences, notably spiritual death and separation from God. Thus, rules underscore the seriousness of obedience and the reality of consequences that follow disobedience.
