1 Corinthians 6:9-11 KJV
[9] Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
[10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
[11] And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
A saved person is no longer considered a fornicator, a thief, covetous, a drunkard etc. Now that you are saved you are washed, you are justified, you are sanctified.
This has nothing to do with if these people commit these sins after they are saved or not and it has nothing to do with if they committed them before they were saved either.
