What does being born again mean? Doesn't it mean you're no longer a sinner? I'm not saying people don't sin after the rebirth but can you say they have sin when they're [b]In Christ[/b] because [b]In Christ[/b] there's no sin.

@Thandeka Yes, we have been [b]forgiven by Jesus, if we have faith and follow him[/b] but we are a "sinner" until our bodies have been reconciled to God when Jesus comes back. Our spirit war against the flesh. If we are born again our spirit is sinless but we still live in our bodies and our bodies have not been renewed.
