As Christians, we must recognize that though we belong to God and are forgiven of our sin, our minds are not totally purified in this life. We are called to actively “put to death the misdeeds of the body” (Rom. 8: 13). The Christian life is, as Luther put it, one of “continual repentance,” living in Christ’s forgiveness as we acknowledge our sins.

They answered him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did, but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did. - John 8:39-40, ESV

And the LORD appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat at the door of his tent in the heat of the day. He lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing in front of him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them and bowed himself to the earth and said, “O Lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by your servant. Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree, while I bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on—since you have come to your servant.” So they said, “Do as you have said.” - Genesis 18:1-5, ESV

Every wound is not healed with the same remedy. - Ignatius (30-107 AD)

Behold, I have come; in the scroll of the book it is written of me: I delight to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart. I have told the glad news of deliverance in the great congregation; behold, I have not restrained my lips, as you know, O Lord. I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart; I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation; I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness from the great congregation. - Psalms 40:7–10, ESV
