"We therefore make this definition of a Christian: a Christian is not one who has no sin, but one to whom God imputes not his sin, through faith in Christ.  That is why we so often repeat and beat into your minds, the forgiveness of sins and imputation of righteousness for Christ's sake.  Therefore, when the law accuses him and sin terrifies him, he looks up to Christ, and when he has apprehended him by faith, he has present with him the Conqueror of the law, sin, death, and the devil; and Christ reigns and rules over them, so they cannot hurt the Christian." Martin Luther
