I was a born again Christian for 10 years and still in bondage before the word came to me that I had been redeemed by Christ from the curse of the law!
I thought my righteousness was contingent on my own good works and the word clearly says His grace is a gift from God lest any man boast!
As a Christian, I still sin, but I have an advocate with the Father when I do, who will forgive me and cleanse me of ALL unrighteousness; When I acknowledge my sin I'm right back in good standing with the Father as if I'd never sinned! (like when your child comes to you and acknowledges the wrong doing that you already knew about, you may still have to measure out discipline, but you do it with tears of joy!)
I am the righteousness of God in Christ!
If i murder you, i still must pay the price in this world for my wrong doing, but if I acknowledge my sin before God, I am cleansed and can be free, even in a prison cell!
This is about as extreme as it gets down here, but to God, sin is sin..so repent sinner and believe the gospel! freedom (heaven) is calling you!
