What does the Bible say about not sinning?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches in 1 John 5:18 that whosoever is born of God sinneth not.

In 1 John 5:18, it is stated that 'whosoever is born of God sinneth not.' This means that those who are regenerated by God have a new nature that is incapable of sinning. However, this does not negate the reality of the old sinful nature within believers, which still wrestles with sin. This is a clear distinction of the two natures present in every believer: the new man, born of God, and the old man, which is inherently sinful.
