What does the Bible teach about the cause of death?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that death entered the world through sin, highlighting sin as the ultimate cause of death.

Romans 5:12 clarifies that sin entered the world through one man, Adam, bringing death as its consequence. This means all humanity dies not merely due to age or disease, which are secondary causes, but because of the original sin. Understanding that we die because of sin helps us appreciate the gravity of our spiritual condition and the significance of Christ’s redemptive work.
