What does the Bible say about our natural condition before God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes our natural condition as helpless and polluted, like an abandoned infant in need of grace.

In Ezekiel 16, our natural condition is depicted as one of total helplessness and shame, akin to an abandoned infant left to die. The passage teaches that we are inherently defiled and unable to aid ourselves spiritually until God intervenes. This metaphor highlights how we are born into sin, needing divine grace to recognize our need for a Savior. Only through the Holy Spirit can we fully understand our sinful condition and seek God’s mercy.
