Sin and Death

But each one is tempted when he is carried away

and enticed by his own lust.  Then when lust has

conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is

accomplished, it brings forth death.

James 1:14-15

....The soul who sins will die.

Ezekiel 18:4b

Death is the constant companion of sin.  In fact, it is   

such a close companion that the two cannot be separated.

Christ came down to destroy the works of the devil.  The

works of the devil are sin and death; and the power of both

were broken in His crucifixion, and overcome by His resurrection.
