Romans 3
Chapters like these is one of the main that moved my understanding of God from myself to Him. Ecclesiastes hit me hard telling me that everything and everyone is worthless, and this chapter just throws salt on the wound. I must not allow this to turn into self hatred as it took me awhile to get out of that mindset, it was crippling. Sometimes it's still there but I can at least reflect on the saving grace that overshadows my depravity.
I wonder how significant this would have been when it was written. The amount of conviction one feels when they realize that they're social position or achievements ain't worth crap.
