All of us are sinners be default, born that way. Jesus is the only one that walked on earth and lived a sinless life. He conquered sin and completed it on the cross. Jesus needed to go to the cross to redeem humanity and reconcile us with God. Jesus is the mediator between us and God 1 Timothy 2:5. It's only through Jesus that we can be connected with God and have our sins forgiven and have freedom from the things that bind us up. When you make a decision to make Jesus Lord of your life, the Holy Spirit comes and lives in you. Before the resurrection, no one had the Holy Spirit. Life is harder when you don't have Him helping you. That's why the ministry of Jesus Christ took off the way it did. The power of the Holy Spirit crushes evil, directs you and gives you the same compassion Jesus has.
So to answer your question about sin. No, the wages of sin is death. Sin is definitely not good. It eventually enslaves us and consumes us the longer we stay in a sinful state. Some people get so bad that they can't even tell whats good and what's evil. In the Word, it's refer to as searing your heart. But yeah, that's where sin ultimately leads people if they don't turn away after repenting. You can't serve God and satan either. Pick one. When you choose Christ, the desire to sin leaves you. God washes you from all of the sin garbage we are carrying and takes it out of you. If you truly want Christ, you wont want to sin. (compare it to being in love with someone. Would you cheat on them? Most likely not.
I remember the day I accepted Jesus. Gosh, when I said the prayer to accept Christ , I remember right after I did that I still doubted a little and in my mind I asked myself if all this Jesus stuff was real. Immeditely after that, my heart felt so warm and I was consummed with Gods love. That's the only way to describe it. It was pure love. God took so much stuff out of me that day, I actually felt 10 pounds lighter.
