Kent, you got it, man. Few things irritate me as much as the empty promises of sinless perfection in the here and now. Jesus died. Jesus rose again. In Him, we will rise again. He is Lord of all creation. Not us. Not things. Not others. People seem to forget the first few chapters of Genesis. Everything was very good, then we had that little sin problem. And guess what, everything was cursed and we earned death. Jesus atoned for the death, but we’re still operating under the curse of the earth. It’s still groaning for its ultimate remaking. Jesus said he’s going to make a home for us. He didn’t say it was done already. As for sin, if we can’t see the sin and struggle Paul went through and lamented over, then realize we still have to deal with it in our justified state, then the only explanation is blindness.

Struggle on brothers and sisters. Jesus is Lord. Trust in Him alone. Seek His strength. And when (not if) you stumble, get back up an walk on.

Peace be with you.
