Is Mankind Spiritually Dead or Alive?
(Total Depravity) Doctrinally, the evangelical utility of Total Human Inability must be enthusiastically employed in consideration of the fact that in a nutshell, every faculty of man’s ability is mitigated by his sinfully depraved nature. This engenders the entire structure of human mankind, inclusive of his mind, heart and especially his will; because he is in a state of utter and complete inability to comply with or participate in any part of the righteous proceedings of God’s salvation requisites. Here it must be tersely conveyed and understood that mankinds problem is far deeper than that he simply “will not” comply. Compliance verses non-compliance is neither a matter that one is spiritually injured nor spiritually sick but spiritually “dead,” resulting in a condition which can only be described by the words “can not!” Does this mean that he does not have a “free will?” Of course he has he will freely function in the attenuated state of depravity of those who are dead in trespass
