Matthew 7:20-23
ESV
20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
As the Bible says it's true that we have this sinful nature that defiles us but it's also true that we have the Holy Spirit now living in us
Though a sinful nature is what we have inherited from Adam, what we are gifted (the Holy Spirit) enables us to walk in holiness and not of the flesh. Ask the Holy Spirit in you to produce in your heart the fruits that glorify Christ.
Choose to grow deeper in your relationship with God and understand that as you grow nearer to the Holy Spirit. He will renew your nature to with love. You'll have a new way of thinking, reflecting, behaving, walking etc. that will be aligned with the character of Christ.
