What does this mean? The context can be found in Matt 9:9-13
If a person thinks they are righteous by their own merit, then the gospel of Jesus Christ cannot call them; they can only be called by the law that will reveal them as sinners and kill the old Adam inside them. In other words:
"If we say we have no sin, then the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive your sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
