  The keyword in this verse is: "might become"

  God, in His Plan to save us and give us much better life here and in heaven, put all of mankind's sins to die with Jesus Christ (Messiah) on the cross.

  When Jesus' blood cleanses our sins, God forgives us and our sins, that are in us before we come to Jesus Christ, are removed by God and He does not remember them anymore. We start on a clean slate when we accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior. It is very important that we also know that Jesus Christ has also given us, as new Christian, a guide in the person of the Holy Spirit of God to teach us the Truth in God - God's true nature and God's Word. You will only find God's Truth in the Holy Bible, nowhere else.

  It is only in the Holy Bible that we can become the righteousness of God. That's why God wants us to read and meditate on it day and night. If we don't, it is just like other books we have read and eventually we will forget what it said and we will be the same as we were before -as sinful as the day we found Christ. Meditating on God's Word would also help us not to just pick and choose what we like and don't like of what God said.

  God cannot be mocked. He sees our hearts and its condition. We can pretend with our peers and people, but not with God, not with the One who created us and know every fiber of our being.

  In today's very dark days where Satan and his clan are very active in devouring ungodly humans and pretentious Christians, our afterlife is at risk and at stake.

  5Young men, in the same way be submissive to those who are older. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,

  “God opposes the proud

  but gives grace to the humble.”

  6Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7Cast all your anxiety on him (God) because he cares for you.

  8Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour (to take you to hell). 9Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings (of being TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL).  1 PETER 5
