True, the sin that kept you out of heaven, but still you are accountable for the sins in the flesh, and are due and payable while in the flesh.
What God has done in Jesus is taken the penalty of death away from us and has given us liberty to live in the flesh as kings and queens of our own lives.
But, that doesn't mean that we don't still die, for the wages of sin is death, and that has not been changed.
God does forgive sins in the flesh, but we must repent, change our minds and live for Him, verses living for our selves.
The world still holds temptations for us, but in Jesus we can and will overcome them.
