Universal Unrighteousness, Romans Series 3:9-20

The climatic point from the previous two chapters comes to a great truth, no one stands righteous and accepted before God in their natural state.  From the 'best' to the 'worst' of people on earth, all stand guilty before God. There will be no sufficient rebuttal that we can muster before God's judgement seat after we die (all mouths will be stopped and the whole world guilty before God).  A dire reality - which makes the gift of God in Salvation through Christ, the more necessary to live.
