You're looking at the wrong way. Sin has been bred into us due to Adam failing to head God's laws, therefore through Adam, all men sin and are sinners. This is why God provided the ransom for all by the outpouring of Jesus' blood, so that you can be forgiven for God knows well that we are imperfect and we need his help. You remind me of Paul when he wrote to the Romans in Chapter 7:
"But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin."
We have no way of knowing what Paul's personal issue was. Perhaps it was grief over past decisions he made as Saul. Maybe it was things common to men, like lust or anger. Whatever it was, he trusted in God to help him and in turn God used him to spread the word of the Christ across the world of his day.
Do not give up hope!
Sin is a disease at work in all mankind. You can't beat sin itself. It is a terminal illness. But you can manage your symptoms with God's help.
- Avoid triggers that will cause you to sin
- Confide in a spiritually mature person you trust
- Associate with people who provide upbuilding and healthy relationships
- Study the bible with a view to learn and develop a relationship with God
- Pray to him and pour out your heart for he is intensely interested in you!
- Ask repeatedly for help and he will provide it to you
