A: No, your theory isn’t right, and the reason is because in heaven we will be in God’s presence forever — and no sin can exist in His presence. God is absolutely holy and pure; as the Bible says, “Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing” (Habakkuk 1:13). Yes, we will be perfect and without sin in heaven.
