God offered us a choice of belief and unbelief, life and death.
It was like that from the beginning.
And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." (Genesis 2:16-17 ESV)
In the beginning, creation was good and perfect and there was no death. Adam chose unbelief, and sin and death entered the world.
It is the same today.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16 KJV)
Today, through the choice of Adam, the world is sinful and imperfect and there is death. But God has made us an offer through His word, the Bible. He offered us eternal life if we believe in Him. If we do not belief, we will die.
