Unwilling to recognize sin!?

“Truly it is an evil to be full of faults, but it is a still greater evil to full of them, and to be unwilling to recognize them.” Blaise Pascal

"If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." I John 1:8-9
