“None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.”

Romans 3:10–12 (ESV)

Are you a half-empty or half-full kind of person? Are you an optimist or pessimist? Reading through Romans 1-3 you would think that Paul is a pessimist? The picture isn't pretty on any side when he considers mankind. However, I don't think he would have seen himself as a pessimist but a realist. He's not positive or negative, he's just describing what is.

This week we finish up the final verses of this section, and the picture of our condition doesn't get any better. Take a few minutes to read through Romans 3 to see his description to prepare your heart and mind to worship together.
