What does the Bible say about bondage to sin?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that all people are in bondage to sin and cannot please God in their natural state.

Scripture clearly states that all humans are in bondage to sin, which is illustrated in John 8:34 where Jesus says, 'Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.' This condition is further supported by Romans 7:18, which acknowledges that 'in my flesh dwelleth no good thing.' Our natural state renders us incapable of seeking God or doing good, as seen in Romans 3:11, where it says, 'There is none that seeketh after God.' Thus, the Bible presents a somber view of human nature, affirming that we are inherently enslaved to sin without divine intervention.
