I still have a question, which I am still not being satisfied with an answer.

The question is: if justified is taken in the legal sense, how are we actually justified if we are still sinners? We will never be legally proven sinless to be justified. Is justified even the right word? Wouldn't it be more akin to being passed over instead, rather than justified? Or can we see the blood of Jesus as the means for the declaration of righteousness of those who accepts it? But we will not be proven sinless; only declared righteous in God's sight.

So why justification?
