The great Anglican pastor J. C. Ryle said: "There are few errors and false doctrines of which the beginning may not be traced to unsound views about the corruption of human nature." This is a revision of the sermon preached in 2005---the third in the series, "The Things That Matter Most." It deals with the great subject of man's "total depravity," or "total inability." It answers such questions as: Are all men equally bad? Does total depravity mean we have lost the faculties necessary to make us moral agents? Cannot the natural man be benevolent? This message includes the "moral pirate" illustration, and the "dog making long distance calls" illustration. It comes highly recommended by the totally depraved sinner who preached it.
