You are a born sinner. Even if you don’t commit a single act of sin, you are born heading to hell. Even if you generally kept the Law and most of the commandments, you would still be a sinner destined to go to hell. 

We are not sinners because of our deeds, such as committing adultery, murder, theft, etc., but we are sinners because we were born as sinners. We were born with twelve kinds of sins. Because we are born sinners in the eyes of God, we can never become good by our own efforts. We can only pretend to be good. 

Then what should we do in the face of such a destiny? We have to ask for His compassion and depend on Him to be saved from our sins. If He doesn’t save us, we cannot but go to hell. This is our destiny. 

Those who accept His Word admit that they are indeed sinners. What must we do before God? We have to admit that we are masses of sin, hopeless sinners. It is not right to think that we were righteous yesterday because we did good deeds and sinners today because we have committed sins today. We are born sinners. Whatever we do, we will still be sinners. This is why we should be redeemed through the water and blood of Jesus. Jesus received all our sins at His baptism by John the Baptist. He then carried our sins to the Cross and atoned for them. After three days, He rose from the dead and completed our salvation of the water and the Spirit.
