Deuteronomy 30:15-20 ... God says:
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
16 In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in HIS ways, and to keep HIS commandments and HIS statutes and HIS judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Why would anyone choose death? Why wouldn't they choose life? Because death is adultery, fornication, drunkenness which is so appealing to the flesh of man.
20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey HIS voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto HIM: for HE is thy life, and the length of thy days:

Death: Galatians 5:19-21
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness (defrauding another), lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft (superstitions), hatred, variance (to vary: argue/debate), emulations (try to out do another person/competitions), wrath (desire for revenge, to delight in seeing another person "get what is coming to him"), strife, seditions, heresies,
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.
