Well, we automatically “pick up” the sin from Adam and Eve when we are born... so, ya, we are sinners. The point and miracle is to realize it...then the person comes to the realization that only by God’s grace we can be saved.

@InHeaven The Bible says you are [b]A new creation. The old has passed away.[/b] What do you think that means?

“IN CHRIST”@Lichocolati When they come to God

A person comes to repentance — to Christ @InHeaven and “in Christ” they begin a new life — fighting sin. Before and after — two different people. But since we are still in the corrupt flesh and devil never sleeps and never stops tempting, we will still sin but in Christ now we have learned to repent every time and live with Him fighting sin in us to the end.

@InHeaven That doesn't mean you're a sinner. The sinner is one that's fully walking in the flesh who isn't unified with God.

People fall all the time@Lichocolati even if they are walking with God. I consider myself now as “walking with God”, cause I definitely changed my life but I still fall (sin), I fall short of what’s in the Bible, so I have to repent everyday over and over again and even anticipate other falls 🤷‍♀️ If I were to die right now, I would not make it to heaven. Maybe some day or maybe not. Who endures to the end. So, the ending of it all will tell, not the beginning. But that’s me, maybe there are holy people out there that don’t sin. I am not sure I’ve met them tho

@InHeaven The fact that you repent shows you're not a sinner. A sinner in my own point of view does one evil thing after another without repenting and doesn't care to. I'm not the person I was before but do I think I'll make it to Heaven. Well I sure hope I will 😅
