Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
There is none righteous, no, not one: there is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. This is the character of all unregenerate men. It is a true description of the whole race of mankind, whether Jews or...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. That is, none do so by nature; those who seek after God are led to do so by a work of grace upon their hearts. Otherwise, men are blind, they do not see the right path; they are willful, and do not seek after God.

They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. This is God’s verdict upon the whole human race. He has the best opportunity of seeing them, and he has the best capacity for judging them; and this is what he says of all men as they are by nature, “There is none that doeth good,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable: there is none that doeth good, no not one. What can be more expressive, what can be more plain than this? The whole race estranged from God and given up to sin.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Their throat is an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Paul does not use flattering words, as those preachers do who prate about the dignity of human nature. Man was a noble creature when he was made in the image of God; but sin blotted out all his dignity.

Their throat is an open sepulcher; A reeking mass of corruption; Rom_3:13.

Here is a description...

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: their feet are swift to shed blood: And when, by fear of the laws of the land, they are prevented from carrying out their evil purposes, yet their anger is itself murder in intent; and into what human heart has not that sin glanced?

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
There is no fear of God before their eyes, How true is this terrible accusation, especially of this present age! Men seem to be casting off all fear of God.
