The Bible teaches that our natural bodies are dead because of sin, as stated in Romans 8:10.
Romans 8:10 emphasizes that 'the body is dead because of sin,' highlighting the inevitable decay and mortality that comes from our fallen nature. Although redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ, we still must confront the reality of death, which is the consequence of original sin. Even the righteous are not exempt from this fate, as death is a universal experience tied to our sinfulness. However, the nature of death changes significantly for believers. While it is a grim reality, it is transformed into a passage to glory for those in Christ, marking the transition from earthly life to eternal life where the sting of death is removed.
