And we need to remember that Sin in us breeds 2 aspects. Self righteousness and sin like hell. And the overwhelming majority are out "trying" to do good and be good.
" living like hell " is just a smoke screen, from the folks that believe it is their lifestyle that is going to save them. They would have us believe that everybody is a Hitler, when 95% of the population is a Mother T.......they think they are good enough.
satan is trying to blind us from the REAL problem.
The other aspect is that we need to know is the difference between "sin" the noun which is in our members - our flesh and "sinning" - the verb for the doing of an action...for example slandering and malice which are just as bad as fornication and stealing.
"Sin" and "sinning" are 2 different things but related as Paul shows in Romans chapters 6-8. Paul uses the noun "sin" 48 times as it is discussing a condition or sphere of being. He only uses the verb " sinning" 2x times.
Knowing that we are under grace and not law - this is what fuels us to walk free of sin's influence and deceitfulness in our lives.
