All of us sin every day of our lives.

Then don't say you "aren't conscious of sin" and expect Christians who know the Scriptures to believe you.

Well, you don’t know the Scriptures very well, then. I was strongly referencing Scripture when I made my statement:

Hebrews 10:2
For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

I’ll leave you to mull its proper interpretation, but I like Dr. Eckleburg have ALREADY been purified from our sins. And, even if our sanctification is ongoing and we still do sin, we are ALREADY perfected forever. This is how and why we can and SHOULD boldly enter the Holiest.

We stand in a state that no Catholic will truly understand this side of Paradise, I’m afraid. It requires you to shrug off too many false things first, which would render you no longer Catholic. Hebrews is a wonderful book that not only addresses the Jewish sacerdotalism, but also strongly refutes the Catholic as well.
