Answer 1Yes you are correct in that God does not sin. He is holy and He cannot sin.

Death comes upon people because they do sin. That has been from the beginning since Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden.

But God has had a plan in place since the foundation of the world that if you come to Him in salvation by His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, you will have eternal life.

You will die physically when your time comes (God determines your physical death manner and time) but your soul and spirit will return to God and at the resurrection of the "just" your soul, spirit will be joined with a new body that will be fit for an eternity in heaven. Passing from this life in death to life in heaven is called by many persons as happening in an instant. Your eyes will close in death and will reopen in life. Man's sin has caused death but God's solution is salvation in Jesus Christ. Jesus is coming soon. Are you ready?

Romans 5:12, " Therefore, just as through one man (Adam) sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned."

Answer 2

The assumption in the wording of the question is that providing people with a time to live and time to die is somehow sinful. If it were not, then there should be no problem reconciling the two parts. God created people as imperfect creations because only then would they have the capacity to choose to do right or wrong. (A perfect creature would be incapable of doing wrong.) Part of imperfection is waxing and waning, so death is a natural part of the imperfection of man, not a sin attributable to the Maker.

Additional thoughts:

God did not 'bring death' on us. He created mankind perfect(Genesis 1:31) but with 'free will' to choose to remain so.(Genesis 1:28) He gave them everything they needed for an everlasting wonderful life on earth and only asked for their obedience in return. When our original parents rebelled, they, in essence, chose 'ANOTHER God'(Genesis 2:17/Genesis 3:3-5/Psalm 96:5/1 Corinthians 8:5-6), and could no longer maintain perfection on their own...they were now IMperfect, sinful, and anyone who came FROM them would naturally be IMperfect too, like a dented cake pan(Romans 5:12/Job 14:4/Jeremiah 10:23).

HOWEVER, God lovingly supplied a way for faithful mankind to REGAIN that original hope of everlasting life(John 3:16/John 17:3/Matthew 5:5/Psalm 37:11+29)when he sent Jesus as a 'ransom' to pay for mankind's sin(Matthew 20:26/Isaiah 53:11/1 Timothy 2:6/Titus 2:14/Hebrews 9:28/Romans 3:23-26/Ephesians 1:7). God wants to bring LIFE to us, not death(Deuteronomy 30:19-20). It's through our obedience to God(as in the beginning), and our faith in the one he sent, that this will be accomplished.(Acts 5:29-32/John 3:16)

Death is a natural consequence of living in a fallen world, as described in Christian theology. God allows death as a part of His plan for humanity, which includes redemption and eternal life for those who believe in Him. It is not considered a sin for God to bring death, as He acts according to His divine will and wisdom.

How is death an enemy of God?

In Christianity, death is often seen as an enemy of God because it represents the separation of a person from God's presence and his original intention for eternal life. Death is viewed as a consequence of sin and symbolizes humanity's fallen state. Through Jesus' resurrection, Christians believe that death has been conquered, and believers can have hope for eternal life with God.


Can god be seen by th physical eye?

God cannot be seen by the physical eye. God cannot be found. God has to be realized. God is a power. It is like asking - can we see electricity with the eye? We can't see electricity but we can see the bulb glow because of electricity. We can see the motor turning because of electricity and we can realize there is electricity. So also, those who realize God experience God in all His manifestations. God is everywhere, in everything. Unfortunately, we are trying to find God in a statue, in a saint, in a temple, in a church. We must change our search. We must try to realize God, try to experience God, not try to find God, see God or touch God. God is a power that is within us, we are searching outside, how can we see God?

What is the main conflict in the story of Moses in Egypt in old Testament?

Moses was sent to Egypt by God to bring the Hebrews out of their slavery so that God could start a new nation (People) for His name. The main problem was that Pharaoh was not willing to let the people go. God sent many plagues upon Egypt, but it wasn't until the death of the "first borns" that Pharaoh decided to let the people go out of his country. Of coarse we know that Pharaoh had second thoughts and send troops to bring them back. but God drowned the soldiers in the Red Sea.

Did Jesus became an atheist on the cross after asking why hast thou forsaken me and that his life was a lie and his death would be for nothing?

Jesus asked, "Why have you forsaken me" because God the father turned His back on Jesus as all the sins of mankind were place on Him so that He could pay for them and God the Father is such a Holy God that he could not look upon Jesus with sin upon Him. Just as God can not look upon you because of all your sin.


Can GOD the creator die?

No, because He is God and he has not sinned. You only die if you sin. Another answer: No, not physically speaking. He is the beginning and the end. He is not mortal and so therefore cannot die a physical death. Some will say or some do say that God is dead to them but they are speaking in a spiritual sense. Make no mistake, God cannot truly die spiritually either, but for many, He is dead to them.
