Grave Condition

“Their throat is an open grave”

Cited from Ps. 14:1-4 are the words that clearly spell out the condition of people who are separated from God. As again referenced by Rom. 3:11-18, the specifics are about what people are predisposed to. To reinforce the fact that no one is righteous.

10  as it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one;
11  no one understands; no one seeks for God.
12  All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, Not even one.”
13  “Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.” “The venom of asps is under their lips.”
14  “Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.”
15  “Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16  in their paths are ruin and misery,
17  and the way of peace they have not known.”
18  “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
