Being a Christian does not make us immune to sin, it just means that we have forgiveness and grace.

When we got saved we didnt become perfect, we just became a Child of the King. We still have the same problems as others. I am a sinner saved by grace. A true born again Christian cannot sin no more, for we are covered under the blood. Yes we will sin but those sins are done forgiven before we even do them. Read the book of 1 John to see what I am getting at.

Romans 3:23-24 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
All of the human race are sinners. Just because you have accepted Jesus Christ as your savior does not mean you will not sin again. We are all imperfect because we disobey the Lord's commandments.
The big difference is that as true Christians we try our absolute best at learning from our mistakes (sin) and stand up and be accountable for them to the God of the Bible!

The Christians that I know and associate with do not purposely commit any sins. However as a person grows in Christ they realize that many of the areas in their lives that unbelievers are not aware of still fall short of the perfect standard of Christ Jesus. It might be something like an unworthy thought or attitude or a careless word or a failure to think of another person as more important than yourself.
If you are talking about people who are mere professors of a Christian faith then I feel sorry for those deceived souls because Jesus said..."Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.' Matthew 7:21-23

Coz they're human just like the others. They're sinners who try to find the way to improve thir lives and leave their sins behind them.
If doctors meant to cure sick patients, why do doctors sometimes get sick? Coz doctors still human!

i agree christians sin as much as any other person. however, they should be trying to repent and therefor trying not to do it ever again.
people make mistakes. they just need to learn from them and become a better person because of it.

Even Christians are just "Playing Religion" They are not living in Faith in Bible Doctrine.
Many are on Satan's subtle side deceiving and accusing God and our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Confess it and move on in your growth in Grace and Knowledge of Jesus Christ.
If you are growing, take a moment to give thanks for the grace He has extended to you.....and don't worry about the other guy....what about you??

how do you know that they do sin as much as others, and if it is true its probably because they are human the same as everyone else

Because they have not made a choice to truly follow the teachings of Christ...Why try, if you believe that it is just a free gift? There is no motivation...
