Believers are dead to sin

Believers have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness

If believers are dead, then why do they continue to "miss the mark?"

No Christians is completely free of sin and have over come the world and the sin in the world ........But they can walk in the authority of the believer and put sin aside as it comes by way of the devil and his hoards ............As this devil will challenge the power of Christ as Christians constantly putting the devil out through the gift of Sovereign of the authority in Christ that Jesus give all believers for their protection against the challenge of the devil to the power of Christ .............. See a believer may feel free and in peace through God and then get ill from the works of the devil , or have evil desires or free proud against the character of Jesus Christ as these sin can crop up from nowhere , and needs to be caste down any imagination that is not of God ..............See the world is an evil place , and believers can move around and pick up the sins of others in places where sin abounds , and then need to caste down all evil thoughts , and pray for people who try to fight against them as theirs curses will be stopped in their tracks and then illness and sickness which is sin , and Jesus will redeem illness just as He redeems evil thoughts ....... Where as believer who have repentant, need to repent when ever they give rise to any evil as Jesus will not remember to sins of a repentant believer and Jesus will never condemn His children , and will give His power to put out all sin of the adversary to believers who exercises this authority ........ See the world is an evil place , but in Heaven there is no sin as the devil cannot go there to bother anyone
