THE STATE OF EVERY HUMAN BEING

“There is no one righteous, not even one;… for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”  (Romans 3:10, 23 NIV)

John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, made the premise that as good as some of us might be, we are all sinners and we must recognize that fact. He concludes his point by saying, "Such is the state of every natural [human being] whether he be a gross, scandalous transgressor, or a more reputable and decent sinner, having the form, though not the power of godliness."

-- Quote from John Wesley's Sermon "The Spirit of Bondage and Adoption"
