Romans 3:23 says, "...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,..." What does that mean to you?

No matter how strong the draw weight on the bow, and no matter how well I aim, I will never, ever hit the bullseye of the target of God's moral excellence.

To use the archery metaphor. I think I can hit the bullseye, just not every time. I need to adjust my aim (repent) and re-aim for the center (holiness). "Be ye holy as I am Holy." Scary stuff, but as it is a command, it must be possible, or at least a goal.

If all have sinned, then I am a sinner. Furthermore, if all have sinned, then everyone I know is a sinner. None of us can be good enough for God. We all, using the archery metaphor, miss the bull's eye.
So now, if all of us are sinners, what do we do with Romans 6:23: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"?

To me it means we had a perfect world with no disease, death or sin till The Fall. After that the evils of the world were released and the Earth has evolved into what we have today.
