Everyone sins all day long every day, whether or not they admit (or, indeed, even realize) it. This is true for the lost and the redeemed. Anyone who claims or gives the impression that they do not are fooling themselves and attempting to fool you with their own self-righteousness. Dont let them. Those with faith are made perfect by Christs righteousness -- not by anything good they have done and it is not undone by any evil acts committed, likewise. It is vitally important we remember this: Jesus lived a perfect life, completely devoid of sin, for 33 years to be killed and then become sin itself to receive Gods absolutely holy wrath and judgment against all evil (which Jesus was innocent of) so that those of us riddled with sin (i.e. everyone else) who believe in Him would be seen by God as totally righteous (which we arent of our own doing). God is not blind nor dumb. He knows us better than we know ourselves -- precisely why He loved us enough to do what He felt necessary to bring imperfect believers to a perfect paradise. My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. (1 John 2:1 & 2). Great freakin news, people. Great, great news. Like, news too good to be true to the extent that its SO good, it MUST be from God. Love you guys. :)
