What do you mean? A believer is perfect, duh!
"For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy."
good day, madam.

so are you sinless squeaky or do you have sin still, sin which results in death 100% of the time? It says it right there in the passage you quoted that if you confess and believe in Jesus then you will be cleansed from all sin!
MAYBE
you're of the thinking that you're sinless for a short while until you sin again. Squeaky, Jesus came ONCE and perfected forever those who are becoming holy.
How can my sins build up when Jesus came 2000 years ago and blotted out those sins? It's IMPOSSIBLE for me to have sin. Jesus blotted out the worlds sin already Squeaky. You seem to rely on works to "pray your sin away". Repentance is not a prayer. Neither is believing that you have to nail sins to the cross every day correct. Cause that doesn't follow the logic of sacrificial law in the old testaments.

Knowing hypocricy is sin. Knowingly going against the will of GOD is sin. I sin knowingly. This is continued hypocricy and vanity.I said
Your robbing yourself because of your bad beliefs. There only a sin to you because you made them a sin.
Rom 14:14
14I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

I know very well of the atonement and neglect and negate and turn from it actively. Try?! What is it to think a thing, rather know a thing is utterly killing you and stripping your own potential to let more here of salvation and turn from self deceit and idolatry? What level of effort does it take to not actively kill yourself and turn from what you know to be true as if irrelevant?
Whatever miniscule amount it shouldn't take, I don't have. I used to have a strong will and have defeated many demons only to have them greet me eagerly once more jaws a nashin, ready to devour everything. I know to have patience and perseverance in the promises of GOD, but what good is patience if your perseverance is in idol worship unto death?

A thing that you are convicted of by the selfless conscience? Yes, why would GOD not allow one to enter into HIS rest? I must rest from my works with my hands that do rob the temple.I said
Will God help you get over something that is not a sin??? If you make things a sin to you that are not a sin. Your only deceiving yourself. And you have walked away from the truth. Now that is a sin.
What about sexual immorality Squeaky?
Is that sin to the one who perceives it as such?

I'm sorry you can't seem to grasp that. You know as well as I do that knowing and doing are two wholly different things.
If one perceives a thing to be sin in their personal life and are convicted of it or shamed about it through he selfless conscience then that is sin to that person and you cannot change that just because it doesn't pertain to you.

Seems to me that the sacrifice is to be of the wants of the flesh- greed- placing anything above or before the percievable will of GOD- idol worship, making the self sacrifice of the Christ for the sake of all to no effect in ones own life, crucifying Him repeatedly though He paid and atoned for the sins of all but once.I said
That is why we crucify our emotions because they convict us of anything just to gain control.

Greed isn't technically an emotion to me. But it is sin or more specifically; the root cause there of.

Again we seem to be in some form of agreement though we still argue about a single word.I said
Greed is an emotion. Paul said it best, when he was in your situation.
Rom 7:8-25
8But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.
9I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.
10And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death.
11For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.
12Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.
13Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.
14For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do.
16If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good.
17But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.
18For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.
19For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice.
20Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.
21I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.
22For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man.
23But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?
25I thank God-- through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
