What does the Bible say about human responsibility in obeying God's Word?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that every sinner has a responsibility to obey God's Word, even though the natural man cannot do so.

Scripture clearly states that every sinner is responsible to obey God's Word. This responsibility remains even though the natural man—those who are not regenerated—cannot obey or will not submit to it. In the sermon, the preacher notes that inability does not negate responsibility; just as one may be unable to stack marbles regardless of the promise of reward, they are still held responsible for failing to do so. God's law is given to all, and while it may be impossible for sinners to keep it, they are still accountable. This obligation emphasizes the gravity of sin and the need for God's grace to aid in true obedience through regeneration, where the believer receives a new heart and faith that is willing to follow God's commands.
