Though 1John 1:9 is many times used as a salvation scripture, it is written to belivers and we all (saved or unsaved) have a sin nature which we will fight until eternity comes. What I think has no bearing on what Gods word says. It is infact what God says. To many people place thier wisdom in what other people have said or written. Study to show thyself apporved of God! I personaly am glad my salvation is not resting in a man but rather in the hands of God and his promise. 1John assures the christian will take a reality check of his life. Judge youself--Don't lie to yourself. Sinners we will be until God calles us home to heaven. God knows us better than we admit at times. How would we have fellowship with a Holy God after salvation if not for 1 John 1:9 ? In sin we are unable to have that fellowship let alone fellowship with other Christians. Try the Spirit, Study in context, Seek and ye shall find! We should not do a lot of things in life--But when you do where do you go? Blindly living on or the Bema seat of Christ?
