“As it is written: ‘There is no one righteous, not even one; there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.’”
Romans 3 v 10 – 12 The above verse is the foundation for the doctrine of total depravity. Simply put it means that man has a total inability to anything good or spiritual. Man in his fallen and sinful state neither understands nor seeks God. And in his natural state this will never change. Sin affects every single part of a man’s life including his ability to come to God. The curse of sin was a total curse that meant that man would never willing come to God.
