What does the Bible say about sinfulness?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that all humanity is completely permeated by sin, making us perfect sinners in need of Christ's redemption.

The Bible teaches that sinfulness is universal among humanity, as illustrated in Isaiah 1:6, where it states that there is no soundness in our flesh, only wounds and bruises. Leprosy serves as a poignant metaphor for sin; just as a leper is wholly affected by their disease, every person is fully afflicted by sin. This inherent sinfulness is crucial for understanding why complete surrender to Christ's righteousness is necessary for salvation. According to Leviticus 13:13, one cannot exist in a state of partial righteousness and approach God. All must recognize their complete unworthiness and the necessity of Christ's perfect sacrifice for redemption.
