Paul continues to talk about the blessings for those who are truly justified. In these verses, he paints a dark, but true picture of the natural heart of man. In doing so, he then clearly shows the amazing and great love of God.
The Dark Side: Ourselves
The natural human is powerless
The natural human is ungodly
The natural human is a sinner
The natural human is an enemy
The Bright Side: God
God's love is displayed despite our wretchedness
God's love is eternally reliable
God's love is worthy of rejoicing
