Do you know that God destined us to replace or add to angels.  So that when we are good(our souls are whitened) enough, we would join the angels In eternity,  praising him.
Now,  this does not mean immediately we give our lives to Christ,  we are automatically free from the consequences of the sin we have committed before.  NOT AT ALL.
What happens is that WHEN WE GIVE OUR LIVES to God, through the relevant way,  it could be the Christian religion,  that is through Christ, he immediately becomes,  meaning our adoption  deed just became completed.
