Death stalks us from the moment we have life.
God tells us in Scripture, "The wages of sin is death."
Even though we have the sin nature, inherited from Adam because of the Fall in Eden, God is gracious, kind, and patient and allows us to live our a life on this sin stained earth, when he could have just killed Adam and Eve and started over.
Why did God allow humans to live after they sinned? God wanted to show He is the God of Love, graciousness, kindness, mercy, and his other attributes he would not be able to reveal to us, and to the angels, if he just killed us and started over. Many of God's attributes would never be on display, and no one would ever know they existed.
While death entered the world by Adam and Eve's sin, the death didnt kill them instantly. Instead corruption, decay and suffering entered the world, but our spiritual life died, and we would physically die at the end of our appointed timespan. We are spiritually dead and have no connection to nor relationship with God, without receiving Spiritual Life and the new nature given to us by God when we obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
You can have spiritual life, a personal relationship with the God, that starts now and lasts for eternity.
Understand and obey the Gospel. The moment you do, you will be born again by God, and be called
a redeemed one, a child of God, saved, born again, a saint, a priest of Christ, a witness, a proclaimer of the good news, and you eternally belong to God and to Christ as his Bride.
