We are all sinners by birth, but in Christ Jesus, we are…
““We are all sinners by birth, but in Christ Jesus, we are made perfect and righteous the day we are baptized and born of God. Through faith, we forsake sin and walk in righteousness. In Christ, we have a new identity, and His righteousness becomes ours. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ, for we are set free from the power of sin and death. If we deliberately sin, it reveals that we are not walking in the Spirit. In Christ, we are new creations, no longer defined by our past sins but by His righteousness.””
