Q173. Why, how is it with men, before faith comes?
Without faith, or before faith comes, it is impossible to please God, for whether their actions be civil or religious, they sin in all they do. The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination, and the ploughing of the wicked is sin.
Scripture Proofs — King James Version

Proverbs 21:4,27
“An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?”
