We are all sinners who have earned God’s wrath. We cannot keep God’s perfect Law.
“The Lord looks down from heaven
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek God.
All have turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.” (Psalm 14:2-3 NIV)
“Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.” (Romans 3:19-20 NIV)
But God still loves us. So much so that He sent down His Only Son, Jesus Christ, a Lamb without spot, to suffer and die for us. Trust in Jesus Christ. If you trust in Him, your sinful nature has died on the cross with Him, and His perfect righteousness is declared yours so that you are pure and holy in the Father’s sight.
