Question:
Why is the penalty for sin death? Why death, of all things?
Answer:
Why is the penalty for drinking poison death? The answer, obviously, is that poison kills.
In the same way, sin is a turning away from God who is the source of all life. When we walk out of the light, we walk into the darkness. When we turn away from the source of life, we turn towards death.
