It is obvious that everyone does wrong/sins some of the time, but at what point does a person become a sinner? Would you consider yourself a sinner? Who would you consider a sinner?

A ' sinner ' ? No. What I am is a ' learner '. When my kids make a mistake I realize they may have done ' wrong ', yet through lessons, conversations, awareness they learn and grow through that experience. I don't feel that they have sinned.
Same with this. . . When we make mistakes as some label as sinning. . . God know that we are simply human and are having human experiences...thus making mistakes and HOPEFULLY learning through those mistakes.
My kids make mistakes...they learn and grow. I am a child of God...I make mistakes...I learn and grow. Learning...not sinning. If a person makes mistakes and does not learn from them...than I find that to be just very sad...not ' sinful '.
I am not a sinner...I am Human learning and growing. A Soul living a Human experience.

We are all born into this world being sinners. The only options are to remain a sinner without benefits or to become a sinner saved by grace. "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." The book of Romans chapter 3, verse 23 from the Holy Bible.

A sinner is someone who has sinned. Everyone is a sinner except for Jesus. Besides, in the bible it says that all sins are equal. So you can't even say that because someone murdered someone else it makes him a sinner and not you, because you only disobeyed your parents. We are all sinners.

I would consider someone a sinner if they deliberately did wrong to someone else. Someone with criminal intent, intent to harm someone.
Yes, I have sinned, but I like to justify myself and say I never meant any harm to anyone, that I was just trying to protect or take care of myself, that I just didn't think through all the consequences first, that I was selfish rather than evil. God may have a different view of me, though.

I dont label myself in any category. What is the purpose in
convincing yourself that you are a "bad" person. Regardless of how some religions suggest that God is always in judgment of us, I dont believe it for a moment. My God loves me just the way I am. He is always with me. I am me and I have to live with myself if I purposely hurt someone else. You know in your heart what is right & wrong. So considering yourself a "sinner" is not
necessary. Meaning-whats the point?

No one is a sinner. Sin does not exist. No.

The only one who never sinned is Jesus, and so therefore, everyone alive is a sinner.

Someone who means to do wrong and doesn't feel regret about it is a sinner.

We are all sinners because we are all human, given to human failings. We can only hope we can overcome our human frailties, and at least not commit the same sins over and over.
