Because We Are Righteous in Christ, Why Do We Still Struggle?

This morning, I thanked our Father that I am as righteous as He is because He made me that way in Christ. This is a result of our union with Jesus Christ from whom all our blessings flow.  Yet, when many people hear this in one of our conferences or our counseling, it is often
