What does the Bible say about sinners needing salvation?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible teaches that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and Jesus came to save sinners.
Scripture clearly indicates that all humanity is in need of a Savior due to sin. In Romans 3:10-12, it states that there is none righteous, no, not one, meaning that every person is in desperate need of redemption. The good news is found in 1 Timothy 1:15, where it is declared that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, which offers hope to everyone who acknowledges their sinful state. The emphasis on sin and the need for repentance is reinforced by Jesus Himself when He states in Luke 5:32, 'I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.' This encapsulates the heart of the gospel message: that Christ's mission was to save those who recognize their need for mercy.
