Believing in and following Jesus does not mean mimicking him. Our life is now hidden IN Him...in Christ. Remember, break one law...and guilty of all. Jesus of Nazareth did for us what we cannot do, which I think you’re saying we still need to sort of do.

Really?

1John 2:

[1] My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
[2] And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
[3] And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
[4] He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
[5] But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
[6] He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

Looks like John disagrees with you, huh? .
