  • Rom 3:9-9 : 9 What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin. 10 As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one. 11 There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God. 12 They have all turned aside. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not, so much as one." 13 "Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit."

For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
