David reminds us of this in Psalm 58:3: “Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward and speak lies.” The words of Psalm 51:5 are even more familiar: “Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.” These verses are very instructive.
Again, this is theologically true. However, why do we not read as much about the godly characteristics of a heart for God? So much of the focus in SCH is on the negatives, the deficiences, and the sins of children.
