The beauty and the mystery here is that Jesus Christ will cleanse us from all sin. But while the mark of sin will be removed by Christ, some of us will at some times receive a deeper and more thorough cleansing based on our walking closely to him. Some remain dulled from sin. I want to be completely transformed and made new and thoroughly cleansed from all the effects and remains of sin.
Excerpt from (http://utmost.org/prayerful-
Do we believe that God can fortify and protect our thought processes
far beyond where we can go? “. . . the blood of Jesus Christ His Son
cleanses us from all sin” (1 John 1:7). If this verse means cleansing
only on our conscious level, may God have mercy on us. The man who has
been dulled by sin will say that he is not even conscious of it. But
the cleansing from sin we experience will reach to the heights and
depths of our spirit if we will “walk in the light as He is in the
light” (1 John 1:7). The same Spirit that fed the life of Jesus Christ
will feed the life of our spirit. It is only when we are protected by
God with the miraculous sacredness of the Holy Spirit that our spirit,
soul, and body can be preserved in pure uprightness until the coming
of Jesus-no longer condemned in God’s sight.
