@bluemeeni1658 You are looking at this the wrong way. Your repentance comes first, then you follow Christ by obeying ALL of his commands. In doing so, you learn to walk in the Spirit. As you learn to walk in the Spirit so you sin less and less. The KEY is walking in the Spirit by obedience to the commands of Jesus (John 15:10 etc_). If you do grieve the Spirit then we have an advocate with the Father. It is about obeying not constant repentance.
At what point in a childs development does sin enter his or her members? Children are born with the ability to sin therefore we are all imperfect at birth. Jesus was and is and was always perfect even from the moment He was born. God can not sin neither is He capable of sin because He is soveriegn. Again this is a genuine question. I beleive I will aways live in repentance and have to repent for the rest of my days, it is impossible to attain perfection like His perfection without him.
