Maybe if you deconstruct the text you can come up with that. But the language is damning.
as it is written,
“There is none righteous, not even one;”
I think we can agree on the meaning of this one
“There is none who understands,”
This goes along with with:
But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised.
— 1 Corinthians 2:14
So the natural man doesn’t understand because he cannot.
“There is none who seeks for God;”
You seem to think that there are.
“All have turned aside, together they have become useless;”
As a result of the Fall.
“There is none who does good,
There is not even one.”
Well, except for those who are convicted sinners, it would seem.
“Their throat is an open grave,
With their tongues they keep deceiving,”
“The poison of asps is under their lips”;
“Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness”;
“Their feet are swift to shed blood,
Destruction and misery are in their paths,
And the path of peace they have not known.”
Not sounding like one who wants anything to do with God.
“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
— Romans 3:10-18
And the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
And this is the person whom you think can just change and want to repent.
Romans 3:23 is the summation of all he’s written from Romans 1:18 up until that point. It’s his summation of both Gentiles and Jews. That whole section show how both Jews and Gentiles are sinful. 3:10-18 is just the overall description of them. He gives no wiggle room. You are creating wiggle room.
