We often think of "sin as an act that can be repented of but Paul sees it as a condition from which we are freed and redeemed in Christ."
It is this concept of sin that we must grasp if we are to then grasp the true meaning of repentance, the true significance of Jesus victory over sin, the true significance of the New Creation we see hinted at in the Resurrection.
