Thank you so much Arie.  It is like walking in the Light as we are in the
Light, and yet it often looks like we are walking in the dark, but we know
we are in the Light.   

It is knowing the Battle is won, and yet it is not over, and we still have
to be involved in the fight.

Between you and Mark, I feel more sure and comfortable dealing with this
verse.

Grace, Peace, and Joy
Clint

I think this is not a matter of understanding of the Greek text that speaks
here of things we have got already. 
The problem belongs to the fact that there are things ("already - not yet")
about which the Bible states that we have got them whereas in other places
the same Bible makes clear that we will get them. 
We are holy, but we have to be holy and will be holy. We are in heaven, but
we will be in heaven. We have eternal life, but we will die. We have been 
re"surrected, but we will be resurrected.
So the problem does not lie in the Greek text but in the comparision of
various texts.
