"Sin" is rebellion against God (or willful disobedience). Take Adam and Eve, for example. God gave them one commandment. But, they disobeyed and as a result of their sin, they lost the close fellowship with God that they once enjoyed (i.e., spiritual death). God is Spirit. Human beings can only communicate with God through our spirits, which are only made alive when we have received Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior. Apparently, there are sins which result in "spiritual" death. If we continually neglect our relationship with our Lord (i.e., fail to regularly read His word and pray), "spiritual" death is a certainty. Also, if we fail to consistently confess our sins to the Lord, we cannot expect to maintain a healthy or close communion with the Lord. Hope this helps. |
