Getting back to the OP, here is a long and interesting article, using the Greek and some good sources on 1 John 1:9

this is too easy to answer (a pre-school infant in Israel may well be able, if trained by righteous parents).
no. you wouldn't go to hell. at least not until after judgment day, if ever.
yes. within a few days probably, you would go to the grave. (you would be buried, unless there wasn't enough left to bury)
please don't argue about this or ask questions of goyim.... they have so little understanding.... (yes, even the 'educated' ones, apparently, from this forum)

test everything.
note that in the verse you quoted,
most people on earth are expressly excluded from "we" ..... and "us"...
just like in the flood.
so, test everything, and work out any possible salvation with fear and trembling and
look up what it is written in the NT >> "be afraid" of, or "be terrified" lest ...... see what is written....
and guard your heart and mind above anything, and from anything, that might distract you.(from God).

Not true. First, people have already replied to what I have said so far (Including the verses). Second, whether somebody here at CC reads about the different types of OSAS or not, I know someone else in time could potentially run accross this thread by doing a search on this topic. I know, because I have ran into some very interesting discussions on Christian forums many times (without joining the forum) as a part of researching something in God's Word thru searching the internet.
People don't have to say it. The doctrine itself (without proper guidance) will lead a person to the thinking they can sin and still be saved (All by itself). But I do see folks preaching one thing and then saying another thing on the topic of morality. They are subtle. Besides, there ARE people who will flat out admit that you can sin and still be saved. I have talked with them many times. Besides, I was not saying that anyone here personally believes in a sin and still be saved doctrine. I have no idea what people believe unless they tell me. However, what is interesting is that when I preach against such a doctrine or false belief of one who sins with the thinking they are saved, they have problems with me saying that. Why would one have a problem with a doctrine they don't believe? So no, you would be wrong again.
Do you honestly think I am writing here to get "likes"? I am here to love God and to love others. I am here to lead them to the truth in what God's Word says (And not in what they would like it to say). Also, again, others here have commented on my posts (Unless you and or others are telling them to specifically not to reply to me or something). People will reply because they want to love others and set them straight (According to God's Word). If you feel that any of the passages I have stated are unbiblical, you are more than welcome to discuss the Scriptures with me in a kind and loving way back and forth. For we are on a BIble discussion forum and not on a "Let's criticize others" forum.
Please don't call me "dude." It is disrespectful to say that to someone when you are in strong disagreement with them or when you don't know them.
Again, folks here have already replied. So it's a little late to be saying otherwise. Also, again, you are welcome to discuss what with what I believe in what Scripture plainly teaches.

There are a few here that would not only say yes, but say that you deserved it.............TOLD YOU.....there would be some who ignorantly say yes.....
amen, brother..and may I compliment your spiritual attitude and knowledge, in the answers and rebuttals that I have read that have come from your direction. We need more holy spirit filled men like you who have and make use of their spiritual gift(s). Jesus died so that we can have power to overcome sin..and yes, we need to confess our sins. However, GOD, in all of HIS wisdom, does know the heart of HIS own who follow HIM..and when He sees that our last breath on earth just may have not been a complimentary word there, however, the blood of JESUS has already forgiven that 'dirty' word. When we confess, while living, it shows that we are humble and have a conscience that pricks us when we do that which is not in line with the will of our Father.
Well, when you read Romans 5:8 you also have to read Romans 6:1-2 that says,
"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?"
And,
"Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? " (Romans 6:16).
For Paul says,
"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).
