What does the Bible say about man's wickedness?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible states that every imagination of the thoughts of man's heart is only evil continually (Genesis 6:5).

In Genesis 6:5, God expresses a grim assessment of humanity, saying, 'The wickedness of man was great in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.' This verse highlights the fallen nature of mankind post-Fall, emphasizing that without divine intervention, every aspect of human thought is corrupted by sin. We must understand that this acknowledgement of our depravity is essential for recognizing our need for Christ. Only by acknowledging the depth of our sin can we truly look to Him for salvation, as any attempt to justify ourselves leads us away from Christ.
