If salvation is based upon belief and a relationship, sin is just a background by-product, in which does not really seem necessary. Thus, why would God allow for such, and/or not contain as such, when it's not necessary or relevant?
It's a little more involved than a string of abstract words. Belief is more than just intellectual assent, it is a working out (existential) of dealing with the condition of the world around us...a world permeated with sin. The real power of it is already broken, yet, as we are living out a temporal "scene",if you will, a residue remains...like a thrashing rattler snake with its head sliced off...it can still kill you if you lose sight of it...it's best to bury the head and watch the body spasm. Again, it's a time thing and from our perspective, it is difficult to judge.
