You can have FAITH in HIS blood to cleanse you FROM ALL SINS. And BY FAITH you can be sanctified BECAUSE HETherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate Heb 13:12
If you will SEE that believers HAVE BEEN SANCTIFIED thru the offering of the body of Jesus Christ THIS IS STILL A FAITH thing and MAKES holiness A FAITH thing just as redemption is a FAITH thing. ANYONE WHO has NOT the FAITH to believe will try to WORK out THEIR OWN salvation with FEAR and trembling. If you are trying to HELP GOD in your sanctification than you are working and NOT believing Christs ONE offering was good enough for you or tiring to WORK up enough FAITH by reading more WORD or praying more prayers or attending more church services IS STILL you trying to HELP the TRUTH who ALREADY (have been sanctified) BY ONE OFFERING!By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Heb. 10:10
again THIS is the WORD of GOD stating the ONLY process that is possible= washed=sanctified=justified NO OTHER WAY. Even a ignorant earthly judge cant pardon a sinner who wants to continue in their crimes/sins. YOU WONT be made NOT guilty until YOU HATE UNRIGHTIOUSNESS and LOVE holiness, Heb. 1:911And such WERE some of you. But you[ WERE WASHED , but you WERE SANCTIFIDED but you WERE JUSTIFIED in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit (of HOLINESS) of our God.

Dialog on the merits of the initial post with the scriptures given. I could give you some examples for instance:
If ALL sin, then why did Jesus say "neither this man nor his parents sinned?"
If you have a position or an alternative answer , then give it. I cannot guess what you are thinking or respond to unwritten presuppositions.
You say PEOPLE si n, and I read that sin manifests through people and is NOT THE SAME AS people JUST as Paul wrote in "NOT I, but sin." When you have a response for this contradiction, then that would be nice also.
Romans 5
18 So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.
