Greetings!
I am wondering about the translation of 1 John 3:6.  
Everyone who remains in him sins not; everyone who sins has not seen him nor 
known him.

Does this mean that a person that is in him never sins anymore?  (Surely 
not!) And if not, then how could we better translate this verse or explain 
its Greek tenses? Any help you can give to enlighten me on this verse would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time
