When this happens, your sin consciousness will fade,
I actually do not have any sin consciousness.
But the fact that I am not conscious of sin does not mean that I have no sin dwelling within me.
I take the word of the Lord at face value that if I were to say that I had no sin, the sin of self-deception would be right there in me.
I think, also, that 1 Corinthians 4:4 states most clearly where I am coming from.
I am not without sin merely because I am not aware of sin dwelling within me.
The moment I begin to proclaim that I am without sin, I have crossed the line into self-deception; and that is sin.
