Romans 3:9
Compare all
7 For if the truth of God has increased through my lie to His glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
8 And why not say, a“Let us do evil that good may come”?—as we are slanderously reported and as some affirm that we say. Their1 condemnation is just.  

All Have Sinned

9 What then? Are we better than they? Not at all. For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that athey are all under sin.  
10 As it is written:
a“There is none righteous, no, not one; 
11 There is none who understands;
There is none who seeks after God.
12 They have all turned aside;
They have together become unprofitable;
There is none who does good, no, not one.”

Romans 3:9-11

Oh, now, come on! That seems almost too astounding to agree with. But those are God's own words. God does not lie. There is nobody who ever lived, who ever sought after Him. Not even one person out of forty or fifty billion people who ever sought after Him!

There is a logical answer to why—because nobody knows who to look for. Everybody comes up with his own image of God. That is what He speaks of. Nevertheless, everybody's image is wrong.

Romans 3:9-19

Here in Romans 3 is a litany of negatives about good old Homo sapiens. None are righteous, not a one. None does good. Again, not one. All are under the penalty of sin because all have sinned and fall short of God's glory—every person. Every person is guilty before God.
