When you look at a guy in the gutter, is he an object of pity or is he wicked for what he is doing? Well it’s not either or, he is both, and he has no hope unless God has mercy on him and pulls him out of the gutter, and at the same time he is responsible for every sin that put him in the gutter.
We need to guard against the thinking that creeps into our minds that says “people are not really evil.” This will show true on Judgment Day, the only issue is that it will be too late for anyone to do anything about it.
