1 Corinthians 15:56
The sting of death [is] sin. It is sin that gives death his power
to sting and destroy. See Romans 6:23.
The power of sin [is] the law. The law, broken, is sin, and when
this law is consciously broken the conscience is wounded. When a moral
law is broken, moral death follows. If there was no law of any kind,
there would be no sin, no wounded consciences, no moral death. See
Romans 7:7.
