there are many ways of sinning against God there are many sins that man can do, so if you repented of THAT sin, one certain sin that you just repented from, then you say that now you have no sin , then you decieve yourself and the truth is not in you, then yes it would be very much right to say that you still have sin. When Jesus told the Lady that was about to be stoned but was not , He told her to go and sin no more, He didn't say go and do not do THAT sin no more, we pray a daily pray we say forgive us of our trespasses not just forgive us of the trespasse that we have committed so far.

I think we are probably in agreement.
When I say I will always have sin it is because without Jesus and his grace I have no hope of being free of sin.
The flesh seeks itself. But through Jesus , because of his sacrifice, even though I am still in the flesh, I am no longer a slave to it. Because of the grace of Our lord Jesus all I do is made good and glorifies God because of his grace through Jesus.
I cannot overcome anything on my own, but because of Jesus, in him , we have overcome the world.
I hope I clarified better.

I believe that also...but since we are still flesh and blood and are susceptible to sin because our very bodies are corruptible we cannot inherit Gods Kingdom until such time as this corruptible/mortal body puts on incorruptible/immortality.....I think that is why we have to daily pray for the forgiveness of our sins.
