Jeremiah 44:10, 16-17
10 They have not been humbled, to this day, nor have they feared; they have not walked in My law or in My statutes that I set before you and your fathers.’ 16 “As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not listen to you! 17 But we will certainly do whatever has gone out of our own mouth, ... For then we had plenty of food, were well-off, and saw no trouble.

Hardened necks to do our own will and hardened hearts to love all else but God - especially ourselves - this is what leads to the bondage of sin and its just consequences. So many say that they are better off without Christ, that they will not listen to God as He speaks through the Bible, instead listening to teachers and speakers who lie against God to do what they want instead of our Creator.
