The heart of Paul's teaching can be found in the book of Romans.
People have turned away from God:
Rom 1:25 who (mankind) exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Every body is guilty of turning away from God and will one day be judged:
Rom 2:16 .................God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
Rom 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
God has made a way for people to enter a right relationship with God:
Rom 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Rom 5:9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.
Faith in Christ is the way of salvation:
Rom 5:10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
So salvation is through faith in Christ as a satisfactory sacrifice for sin
