Why We Die: Sin, Sorrow, and God's Original Plan
”Why will you die?” Has been God’s eternal cry to a humanity bent on turning away from his truth, authority, and goodness. It was not God’s intent, purpose, or plan for us to die. But we all die because we all sin. But God has a restoration plan to save us from sin and eternal death through Jesus so that we can LIVE with Him forever!
Host Michael Jerome examines Genesis 5 and other biblical accounts to show that death was never God’s intent and that sin — broken fellowship with God and others — is the root cause of death and suffering. He connects Scripture (Ezekiel, Luke, John, Revelation) with modern tragedies to illustrate how profound and pervasive sin’s effects are.
Through film-style study, real-life examples, and Jesus’s compassion and resurrections, the episode points listeners toward the Christian hope: in Christ, death is not the final word and believers will one day be made new.
