Were they so different from us?

"God looked down from heaven on all people to see if anyone was wise, if anyone was looking to God for help." Psalm 53:2

In one of the greatest testimonies to the authenticity of Scripture, the Word of God doesn't avoid showing the weaknesses of man; it doesn't cover up the unpleasant; it doesn't hide the dents in the armor. In an honest look at humanity, we read that Abraham doubted, that Moses lost his temper, that Peter denied his Lord. These chosen men of God - were they so different from us?
