I'm not sure of the precise theology, but as a Texan, I reckon you're right.

Actually, I may have accidentally used a Reformed term incorrectly. :) OOPS. Years ago, before I became a Reformer, my mentor taught me that to "reckon" one's sins was to agree with God that they are indeed sins, and to want forgiveness and repentance. I thought that agreed with what you were saying.
Now I've come to learn that in Reformed theology the word "reckoning" has to do with imputation of sin. When an unbeliever sins, it is "reckoned" to his own account. He is guilty and must pay. But when a believer sins, those sins are "reckoned", in terms of guilt, to the account of Jesus, who has paid for them. The corruption of the sin of believers, however, remains with them.
