What does the Bible say about human freedom and sin?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that all humans are under sin and not truly free to choose righteousness without divine intervention.

According to Luke 11:20-23 and Romans 3:9-18, the scripture reveals that all men, both Jews and Gentiles, are under sin and not capable of achieving righteousness on their own. Paul emphasizes that there is none who is righteous or seeks after God. Instead, humans are described as being under the dominion of sin and the influence of Satan, making true freedom in spiritual matters an illusion. This underscores the Reformed doctrine that human will is in bondage due to sin and necessitates God's sovereign intervention for salvation.
