If you are saved, then you won’t feel like sinning any more.

No, this isn't Biblically true (and as a saved Christian I will testify that this isn't the case many times!!!). Once you are saved, you are still in the flesh, susceptible to the temptations Satan will send your way. If and when we sin again, we are to ask for forgiveness from that sin/s, and if we are truly repentant, we will be forgiven.

Martin Luther wrote Bondage of the Will. It says we choose according to our nature. Before we accept Christ as our savior, we choose according to our sinful nature. The process of sanctification changes are nature so that we no longer want to do those things that used to be pleasurable to us. He is the author and perfecter of our faith.
