 It's in more graphic language than we would talk about our own sin and our own bentwardness away from God. But this is us too. We are the enemies of God. That's who we were before Christ, right? Romans 5.10 says, For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more now that we are reconciled shall we be saved by his life. Yes, we are saved by his life, but let us not forget we were first his enemies.
