(Romans 5:14) "...death ruled [over mankind] from Adam to Moses [the Lawgiver], even over those who had not sinned...”
The Apostle Paul explains that sin and death came to humanity due to Adam's sin. NB - We can all look back over our lives and agree that we are indeed all guilty of sin and should be punished for our own misdeeds.
Through one single act of disobedience, he forfeited his right to the Tree of Life and immortality. Therefore, death came through Adam, “even over those who had not sinned...” which is to say that everyone dies, whether they sin or not. An unborn child who dies, though they never had the opportunity to commit sin, will die all the same.
Many would say that it does seem rather unfair that one man’s single transgression should consign all humanity to death.
But surely it is equally unfair that one man’s righteousness also offers all of humanity the reward of righteousness: “Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they will have the right to the tree of life.” (Revelation 22:14)
This signifies that those cleansed through their faith in Christ Jesus and living according to his teachings will be granted the right to eternal life and entry into the New Jerusalem.
