Questions On The Wages Of Sin Is Death, Inherited Sins And Curses by AntiChristian: 9:58pm On Dec 04, 2023
There are many Bible verses that relates death with sin! Some are listed below.

Romans 5:12
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Genesis 3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

Romans 5:17,21
For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) …

Genesis 2:17
but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die."

Proverbs 11:19
Genuine righteousness leads to life, but the pursuit of evil brings death.

Isaiah 3:9
The expression on their faces testifies against them, and like Sodom they flaunt their sin; they do not conceal it. Woe to them, for they have brought disaster upon themselves.

Ezekiel 18:4
Behold, every soul belongs to Me; both father and son are Mine. The soul who sins is the one who will die.

Taking all these together the death is physical as Sodom was mentioned above in Isaiah 3:9.
According to the Bible, one person brought sin and we all were infected with sin and death for all have sinned...

1. So why do other animals die?
2. And how just is making one man a scape goat to bring sin to the world; I don't have to sin to be a sinner as I already inherited sin at birth. How fair is this?
3. The entire women gender was cursed to labor with much suffering after eating from the forbidden tree! How fair is that?
4. Animals too do give birth with much suffering with some even passing through much pain than us. What was their crime? Was there any forbidden tree they ate from?
5. The serpent 🐍 was cursed with crawling on it's belly and eating dust. I wonder how it was moving before and what species of serpent eats dust!
6. If All man have sinned, is Mary included? And why didn't Jesus inherit any sin from Mary?

None of the verses you quoted say any of what you claim though! That instead seems to be an interpretation that you have chosen to apply as far as verses quoted out-of-context by the way. undecided

Paul's famous "All have sinned..." comes from Psalm 53 where David spoke those words instead about all those who do evil(fools) against God.
1 A fool thinks that there is no God. People like that are bad. They do evil things. None of them does anything that is good.
2 God looks down from heaven at the people on earth. He wants to see if there is anyone who is really wise and who wants to know God.
3 But they have all turned away. They have all become evil. Nobody does anything that is good, not even one person.
4 People who do wicked things understand nothing. They destroy my people as easily as they eat bread. They never pray to God.
5 But now they are very afraid when there is nothing to be afraid of! God has completely won against his enemies, the people that attack you, his people. God has turned against them, so you are able to make them ashamed!
6 God, you are the one who saves your people, Israel! Leave your home in Zion and make your people strong again! When God blesses his people, Jacob's descendants will sing! Yes, Israel's people will be very happy! - Psalm 53 vs 1 - 6
Also, see Psalm 14. David, the man who spoke those words, was himself a righteous man and so not implicated. undecided
1 Only fools say to themselves, ‘There is no God.’ People like that do bad and evil things. None of them do things that are good and right.
2 The Lord is looking down from heaven. He looks at the people of the world, to see if there are any wise people among them. He looks to see if anyone wants to know God.
3 But everyone has turned away from God. They have all become evil. Not even one person does things that are right! - Psalm 14 vs - 1
Here's from Romans 3
9 So then, what do we learn from that? We cannot say that we Jews are better than other people. No, certainly we cannot say that! I have said already that sin has power over everyone. That is true for both Jews and Gentiles.
10 This is written in the Bible: ‘There is nobody who is right with God. There is not even one person who is like that.
11 There is nobody who understands what is true. There is nobody who wants to worship God.
12 Everyone has turned away from God. All people have become completely bad. Nobody does what is good or kind. There is not even one person who is like that. - Romans 3 vs 9 - 12

You are getting wiser and not far from the truth.


The Bible enjoins us not to cast our pearls before a swine. Your questions should have been answered, but you don't seem to be a sincere seeker of the truth.

6. If All man have sinned, is Mary included? And why didn't Jesus inherit any sin from Mary?

[1] They weren't created in the image of God so their existence is not needed for long since they can't contribute to the developmental assignment God gave to humans regarding the planet: EARTH! Genesis 1:28

[2] Adam began bearing children after he sinned so he has passed sin to children born afterwards if he had had children before sinning they wouldn't have inherited sin from him.

[3] Eve began bearing children after she sinned so she passed her imperfect condition to her children afterwards otherwise the curse wouldn't have affected her daughters.

[4] They don't need anyone to help them during labour even when passing out excreta we all feel it if it's hard but do we always need help to excrete? NO!

[5] Originally serpents do have limbs it was just discovered few decades ago that through their DNA snakes supposed to have limbs but scientists can't figure out why it's not growing out.

[6] Mary is a sinner as daughter of Adam and Eve but Jesus couldn't inherit sin from her because his birth wasn't through the reproductive process:

But Mary said to the angel: “How is this to be, since I am not having sexual relations with a man?” In answer the angel said to her: “Holy spirit will come upon you, and power of the Most High will overshadow you. And for that reason the one who is born will be called holy, God’s Son" Luke 1:34-35

Even the Quran talked about the holiness in the birth of Jesus but that's no problem because by asking this particular question you're interrogating both the Bible and the Quran so this shows your genuineness as a researcher! smiley

Paul literally announced that he was taking quotes from scriptures beginning in Romans 3 vs 10.
9 So then, what do we learn from that? We cannot say that we Jews are better than other people. No, certainly we cannot say that! I have said already that sin has power over everyone. That is true for both Jews and Gentiles.

He went on to quote from at least 7 other bible passages before he then put together his reasoning of the content of those verses in the rest of that chapter. And the common theme as far as all the verses Paul quoted from scripture in that block is that they were all about the character of the evil people ...those who do evil against God. undecided

So, before Paul could be allowed to paraphrase any aspect of Scripture, he was supposed, to right after pointing out he was quoting from Scripture itself, also tell you, "Oh, by the way, Romans 3 vs 10 - 12 is taken from Psalm 53 vs 1 - 3 and Romans 3 vs 13-14 from Psalm 5 vs 8 - 10 and Psalm 140 vs 1 - 5, Romans 3 vs 15 from Proverbs 1 vs 10 - 15, Romans 3 vs 16 - 17 taken from that written in Isaiah 59 vs 1 - 8, and Romans 3 vs 18 taken from that written in Psalm 36 vs 1 - 4."?

Does this funny rule of yours apply as far as all in Scripture, or just to Paul in this particular situation where you wish to assert your very own interpretation in place of Scripture which Paul revealed his idea for the statements that followed in fact comes from?

Paul didn't say he was paraphrasing any scripture. You were the one who submitted as such simply because it looked similar.

Well what can I say of a Man who was talking about Jesus but never offer just one quote of Jesus in all his Letters and the only time he did, no equivalent can be seen from the Four Canonical accounts.

When you quote someone you mention the reference and you don't just type "copied" "it is written" and things like that. Paul didn't quote that Psalm verse.

When you quote your quote should be verbatim and should have a reference!

Same Paul that is fond of passing his own opinions as Laws
Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 14 vs 34:

The women should keep quiet in the churches, for they are not authorized to speak, but should take a secondary and subordinate place, just as the Law also says.

In the above, "just as the law also says" qualifies "Women should keep quiet in Churches for they are not authorized to speak but should take a secondary and subordinate place."It therefore can be deduced the law categorically says that statement.

Where does the law state that women should take a subordinate/secondary place and should keep quiet in Churches as they are not authorized to speak?

Do you know how many times the psalms are quoted in Scripture by even the Old Prophets? So many times to count and they were all mostly paraphrasing of the text referenced — rarely any done verbatim which makes sense since these texts were written in different times and language as we know it is fluid but maintains its meaning nonetheless. And do you know how many times the word "Psalms" is found referenced by all in Scripture? Only about 12 times. undecided

Here you are, thousands of years after the fact, attempting to impose upon Scripture rules that made no sense of any kind to the many authors of the books of Scripture. E be like say you no get better to do with your life is why. undecided

Paul didn't quote that Psalm verse you're pointing at.
You can only say he paraphrased it or stated what was close to it.
