The bad news: all humans are sinners (Romans 3:10-12, 3:23). We underestimate our sin because we compare ourselves to other sinners instead of to God's holiness. The Freeze analogy: a guy celebrates while losing a race because he doesn't see who he's compared to. Isaiah 6: when Isaiah saw God's holiness, he cried "woe is me."

Romans 3:10-12: none is righteous, no one does good. Romans 3:23: all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. The key: sin is measured against God's glory, not other sinners. The Freeze video analogy: celebrating early because you don't realize who you're running against. Isaiah 6:1-5: seeing God's holiness produced immediate awareness of personal and corporate sinfulness.
