What does it mean that we are born in sin?

What the Bible says about babies dying?
John 3:16. This verse is one of the most well-known Bible quotes of all time.

Are We born in sin or are we born guilty?
We are born in sin, but we continue to sin by our own personal choice. When we choose sin, we become guilty before God, and His judgment is fair. God is not only fair, but merciful. The Bible’s teaching about personal sin doesn’t end with a declaration of man’s guilt.

What does the Bible say about sin in the Bible?
