Life come vs life, all come

These teachings are based on the principle of cause and effect permeating the three existences of past, present, and future. This principle teaches that the hardships, sicknesses, and turmoil in our life come from the negative karma we’ve accumulated in the past, especially the negative karma of slandering the true Law.

I wonder if 'life, all come' is correct in relation to the rest of the sentence. I think the first version is better. Am I correct?

Thanks.
