Sin

None does good

Psalms 53:1  

1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their ways are vile; there is no one who does good.

2 God looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.

3 Everyone has turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.

Filthy rags

Isaiah 64:6  

All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.

Pluck it out

Matthew 5:29  

If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

None righteous

Romans 3:9-12  

9 What shall we conclude then? Are we any better? Not at all! We have already made the charge that Jews and Gentiles alike are all under sin.

10 As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one;

11 there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.

12 All have turned away; they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.”
