Dead
in sins (
Eph. 2:1
1
And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; (Ephesians 2:1)
)—these words leave no room for the popular delusion that man has only to cultivate his own nature, attend to his inner life, and he will need no regeneration, no atoning blood. To cultivate his inner life, according to Scripture, would be to cultivate corruption and to augment its evil fruit, just as to cultivate an evil tree would only be to make it more prolific of evil. Cultivate, educate man as he is, and he is only made a greater power for evil in this present corrupt age to which he belongs. What says God of such, but that every thought and imagination of his heart is evil continually! The imagination even, which man may have apart from a work of grace, to be religious—see what it was in Cain, and in the Pharisee. The Pharisee had religion without God. The poor publican had no religion, as men count it, but laying hold of God—His mercy—he went home to his house justified.
