"...The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity"
KJV
You are not a christian until you live like Jesus CHRIST, you being a believer not withstanding. He Had no sin or unrighteousness in HIM until when He bore our sins upon Himself on the Cross of Calvary, during which GOD the Father forsook Him, because His eyes cannot behold iniquity (Matt 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?). The entire host of heaven forsakes you, when you sin.
But Good News is that there is hope for a sinner who repents of his sins, as GOD beckons on all sinners to come for reconciliation (Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.), asking JESUS to cleanse you with His blood.
Iniquity is not peculiar to our generation alone, CHRIST was also tempted, Mary Magdalene was caught in the act, even long before the flood, but He expects us to be the Light in a world covered in darkness (iniquity) Matt 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
