Re: Does the Bible say we are Sinners?

In God's eyes it's a done deal folks! The terms God uses now are quite definitive for His many sons: New creation! Crucified! The life I NOW live . . . and so forth. Put off the old man and put on the new man. It is finished. Come into the realm of the Spirit where things are reality . . . not taking just our view and supposedly accurate experience.
So here's the challenge - find a specific passage in the NT to support the idea that born agains are identified as sinners.
