What does the Bible say about sin and condemnation?
Answered in 3 sources
The Bible teaches that all have sinned and are deserving of condemnation due to the law's demands for perfect holiness.
According to scripture, the state of a lost sinner is characterized by condemnation, defilement, depravity, inability, wrath, and death. Romans 6:23 emphasizes that the wages of sin is death, affirming that every individual is born under condemnation because of their sin (John 3:18-19). The law of God requires absolute perfection, and since all have sinned (Romans 3:23), they fall short of God's glory and find themselves in a state of condemnation. This is not a mere legal status but a profound spiritual reality that every unrepentant sinner faces.
