Sin separate Adam and eve from God.
The Wage of sin is death
Matt 5
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
I believe literally in Galatians 5
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

We not discussed If I am save or not. We talking about what bible say about salvation
One of the verse that talking about how not save is
Galatians 5
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Timothy 4:1 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
So you presume that "depart from the faith" means that born again believers depart from saving faith in Christ and lose their salvation? The words "the faith" (Gr. tês pisteôs) in this context means the apostolic faith, the New Testament apostolic body of doctrines. Some who are in a state of professing adherence to the apostolic faith, nevertheless will in both doctrine and practice depart from it, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, which demonstrates that their faith was never firmly rooted and established from the start.
Some "nominal" Christians will abandon the Christian faith, the New Testament apostolic body of doctrines for cults or false religions. That does not prove they were previously born again. In 1 John 2:19, we read - They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
I believe the beginning of such a major departing from the apostolic faith was evidenced as the Roman Catholic church rose in the early 4th century. The Roman Catholic church forbids it's clergy to marry. The Roman Catholic church has other demonic doctrines such as transubstantiation, purgatory, indulgences, papal infallibility etc..

So your not responding to any of the verses I give , but instead you ask for me to respond to your one verse ? what gives ? John 15 these things I have written to threaten you that if you do not work for your salvation I will send you to hell my beloved.
or
11¶These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

Yes sin is bad and caused death . Who's disagreeing?. Then Jesus dealt with this problem on the cross .
2cor 5.19To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Then randomly you jump to the Old testament to quote Mathew 5 about their righteousness having to exceed the Pharisees and scribes ? this is poor bible study . The Cross is after Mathew 5 did you notice ?
