None Were Good

In the Old Testament in Psalm 53, David wrote of how God was seeking even one single person that was good. He found none.

But His Son, Jesus, in the New Testament, was a human on this earth without sin. So when we let Jesus rule our lives God accepts us as righteous.

Psalm 53:

Only fools say in their hearts,
    “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their actions are evil;
    not one of them does good!

God looks down from heaven
    on the entire human race;
he looks to see if anyone is truly wise,
    if anyone seeks God.
But no, all have turned away;
    all have become corrupt.[b]
No one does good,
    not a single one!

Will those who do evil never learn?
    They eat up my people like bread
    and wouldn’t think of praying to God.
Terror will grip them,
    terror like they have never known before.
God will scatter the bones of your enemies.
    You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them.
