What does the Bible say about sin and depravity?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that all human beings are inherently sinful, born spiritually dead, and in need of God's grace for salvation.

The Bible presents a clear view of human sinfulness and depravity, highlighting that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Paul emphasizes that there is none righteous, no, not one (Romans 3:10). According to the Scriptures, humanity is born in Adam, spiritually dead in trespasses and sins (Ephesians 2:1). The natural man, devoid of spiritual life, cannot understand or seek after God (1 Corinthians 2:14). This state of depravity affects every person, regardless of their moral standings or efforts, demonstrating that without God's grace, no one can attain righteousness or justification before Him. Only through the righteousness of Christ, imputed to believers, can one be declared righteous.
