Romans 6:14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
If a person sins, they sin because they have been controlled and taken over by sin because they are not dead to sin was scripture teaches. Sin shall not have control over a person when they are under Grace. This is because Grace has stood in your place and has taken man's sins forever. It's not by your works or actions. You have been taken from under the dominance of the law who told you you've sinned. If a person is not saved in "the flesh" they sin. A believer is not in the flesh and is not under the law. If a person is under the law they sin; if not they don't.
Romans 6:12
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
A verb (action) does not reign over a believer, the noun (Satan) reigns over a believer if the believer allows him to. Believers don't fight or reign over themselves, but they fight and reign over the devil.
Romans 8:9
But you are not in/controlled by the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
If a believer is not controlled by the flesh, they cannot sin.
Romans 7:5
For when we were in/controlled by the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our bodies to bring forth fruit unto death.
The only way a person (not a believer) can sin is if they are controlled by the flesh being in the flesh. It's in the flesh that a person sins through the law.
Romans 9:8
But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God Living in you.
Big point here is you are not controlled by, that is if you have learned to walk in the Spirit.
As to the rest....it is easy to understand. If a believer needs to repent and ask some one to forgive them.....its because they got in the flesh first.
