Jesus and the Apostles taught: 'stop sinning!'

Later, Jesus met the man in the temple and told him, "You are now well. But don't sin anymore or something worse might happen to you." JOHN 5:14 CEV

"No sir," the woman answered. Then Jesus told her, "I am not going to accuse you either. You may go now, but don't sin anymore." JOHN 8:11 CEV

Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame. 1 CORINTHIANS 15:34 KJV

12 Don't let sin rule your body. After all, your body is bound to die, so don't obey its desires
13 or let any part of it become a slave of evil. Give yourselves to God, as people who have been raised from death to life. Make every part of your body a slave that pleases God. ROMANS 6:12,13 CEV

1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead. 1 PETER 4:1-5 KJV
