I don't know which Bible you are reading, but it is quite clear that everyone sins.
As it is written: "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." (I John 1:8)
"Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted." (Galatians 6:1)
"I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin." (Romans 7:25)
The difference is this. We who are in Christ no longer have the desire to sin. But because we are in this "tent of the flesh," we still struggle with, and occasionally sin. We strive for perfection, but never reach it on this side of heaven.

Everybody sins because every human has been born into sin through Adam. It is part of the Adamic nature. However, if any man be in Christ, old things are passed away, and he is a new creation (2 Cor 5:13). If we walk in the light, by faith, the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7). This is not to say that we are sinless, for every day we have a prideful thought or some reaction that is a violation of God's holy perfection. But, as you said, if we are truly His, we do not practice (continue in known) sin, and confession of all known sin is the only way to be free (1 John 1:9). It becomes like bathing daily (or as needed). The immediate reward is a joyful walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Sin! That's funny. It's just a way to try to make people behave. Give them a list of things NOT to do. HA. There is no such thing as sin. Just your opinion of what's bad. And you know what? I think killing and stealing are bad too. You give people a list of what not to do and guaranteed some will follow it and most will laugh saying "Who died and made you boss?" Rules written by man are made to be broken. The world worked just fine before the written law and your silly Bible.

Man, you need enlightning. We sin everyday. You had better study the bible, not just read it. It is virtually impossible to get through the day without sinning. Even your thoughts are sinful, if they are the wrong kind. We get forginess for our past sins when we are saved, but we must pray daily for God to forgive us our sins, that we have comitted today, yesterday, or last week. There was only one sinless person on earth, and they crucified Him.

Brother when you are saved than your sins are covered but remember what John said(He was an Apostle):"If we do sin(That included him)we have an advocate with the Father,Jesus Christ".(1 John 1:9)There is nobody on earth who does not sin.

Uh oh. Someone needs to check their bible! Being saved doesn't mean one will never sin again. In fact the bible says if there is any who say they are without sin, they are a liar and the truth is not in them. Sooooo...you are mistaken.

1Jo 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1Jo 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.
So you dispute the Scriptures?

We live in a fallen world in a corrupt selfish society were sin is so socially acceptable. Christians that sin need to focus on Jesus above all. It is possible to live like Jesus, you have to want to and to completely surrender your life to God.
