If you know God then you know your sins.

Yes and it is not easy when he shows you all the wrong things you have been doing, But only when someone has really met the Lord Jesus and is in communion with him thats when he can have the courage to ask God to reveal his/her sinful nature

I did, but I don't know is it just happened or because it was meant to be. I was actually just working in the nusery/nusery school with my best friend, we were both 14, and one night I decided to stay late with her and "watch" the youth group.
At the end everyone remet outside and I looked at the cross that was in front of the church and it hit me what sort of person I want to be what it had been like for him, and while everyone else was praying, I was just standing there crying. Maybe it was because instead of listening to what was being said I was just thinking about what it would have been like to go thru something like that, and I felt at first sympathy than compassion for anyone who had to grow up and die so young with so much knowledge and responsibility that he 'knew' he was going to have. I was very touched that he would go thru so much for a stranger that would possibly not accept what he sacrificed his life for and I thought how pissed I would be, LOL.
Than all of a sudden a feeling of love and acceptance came over me, and my heart and mind told me it was for real. It was very peaceful but at the same time emotional and I will never forget it or how big the sky looked that night or how bright the stars were.

I don't have a sinful nature....and that is the one thing that stops jesus from having anything to do with my life. And I am glad of it.

Every background is different but for me it was basically like this. My life was pretty much messed up. For the most part, though I haven't faced prison time, I bet a lot of people in prison understand they are sinful -- they've done bad things. That is kind of the way it was for me, I've done bad things, not illegal necessary, but bad things (abortion is legal but since sonograms came out most people understand it is a bad thing). So I was messed up, and to make a long story short, Jesus was able to intercede and come into my life to straighten me out. And here comes the part that I believe answers your question for me .. Yes he had and does. Here's how:
I've been a Christian for awhile now, and something surprised me that I didn't expect. I thought I understood how sinful I was, and I saw my distance and separation as a certain amount before getting saved. As I grew as a Christian, and began to read and study the bible, it seemed like my sin was growing greater, and the distance between my sin and my Holy God was ever growing. It began to get me depressed. Then I believe God helped me to realize something. I wasn't getting farther and farther away from God, but was really getting closer. The problem was that my first perspective before getting saved was not accurate -- I just didn't realize how sinful I was initially. We fall so short of God's holiness, it is about the distance of here on earth, and deep space (probably even more than that). Man thinks he can build a ladder to climb up to God, but God is so holy and the distance so great, that man is not able to ever build a ladder to reach God. That is probably why it was so necessary for God to come down as a man in the person of Jesus, so that he could grab hold of us and bring us up, so to speak.
God brings out our faults, not to condemn, but to work on and change us. I've found that His Spirit will put the finger on an area in my life and reveal it to me, so that I know he is going to be working on that area of my life.

Haha! Well, I asked Jesus to reveal his sins to me, and he did. They are detailed in the Greek Bible.

No, I don't know anyone named Jesus. Is he from Latin Ameica? Did Jesus "allow" you to ask this question, and if you said no you didn't want to ask such a trite question - would it be a "sin?"

yes...
and the Holy Ghost continues to teach
so i may learn what His righteousness is
we all do things in life assuming its not wrong cause it isnt mean or dirty or anything, but even we dont know the whole Holiness of God...and even simple by-words and or words out of context can be sinful , in thier use....we all must continue to ask / seek / and knock...and allow God to continue to show us who He is and His Righteousness and Holiness...for He told us to be Holy as He is Holy....in all things whether it be our words , jobs, home life , what ever it is...allow Jesus to teach us...ALL of His ways that we will be without spot , and or blemish when He comes..........
May God open everyones eyes to His Truths
and teach You all,,His ways and that you may accept HIM as He is...and not what you want Him to be..........Amen

Ooooohhh Yeah!
Not a comfortable experience, but a very necessary one!
People generally have to see that they are sick before they will seek a doctor.

he's been dead or resurrected and gone to heaven or some such 2000 years ago. So I've never met him, and I bet it's pretty unlikely you have either.
