A look at 1 John 3.6

[Hopeful 2]

Yes. I realize that this statement will likely be looked negatively upon, because the prevalent teaching is that Christians continue to sin.

That is a false teaching.
Jesus said the truth would make us free, in John 8:32.
The Jews said, "from what ?"
Jesus answered..."Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin." (John 8:34)
The truth can free us from serving sin !

However, people may differ in understanding of what "sin" is.

As John said, in 1 John 5:17, "All unrighteousness is sin..."

I completely agree.

As John said, in 1 John 5:17, "All unrighteousness is sin..."

Yes. Those who are freed by the Truth are made righteous:

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. (2 Cor 5:21).
