Infact as belivers in Christ, born of a second birth by the spirit is it wrong for us to still refer to ourselves as sinners? I was a murderer, prosititute, liar, theif and so much more and this why was I needed Christ and He came to die for me but in Ephesians 5:5, 1 Corint 6:9-11, Galatians 5:19-21 and Reve 21:8, we are told that such people will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Not so long ago I was discussing with someone very close to me how sexual immorality is sin.This peron then retorted by reminding me that the very thing I'm 'preaching' against is what they know I use to do before so in essence I had no right to say anything on this but my response was what is written in 2 Corinthians 5:17 "in Christ I am a new creation and old things have passed away." Also Galatians 2:20 says, "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ who lives in me." So is it wrong that we still 'wear clothes'which translates to christians still referring to themselves as sinners?
