What is the consequence of Adam's sin for humanity?

Answered in 1 source

Adam's sin results in death and separation from God for all humanity (Romans 6:23).

The consequence of Adam's sin is profound, impacting all of humanity through the doctrine of original sin. Romans 6:23 states, 'For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.' Adam’s disobedience not only introduced physical death but also spiritual death—the severing of the relationship between God and humanity. This separation from God manifests in various forms, including guilt, shame, and the bondage of sin. Understanding this consequence helps believers appreciate the gravity of sin and the significance of Christ's redemptive work, which offers reconciliation and life.
