Willfully sinning is simple: they will do it.
It's premeditated and planned, just like any sinner planning on getting drunk, or thieving, or fornicating, or murdering...
Christians who do so, have departed Christ and His commandment. They can still confess and repent afterward, if the Advocate for the world draws them.
Like the mad prophet, that wouldn't even listen to a donkey warning him not to, and was blind to the Lord with drawn sword.
Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
Willful sinning is presumptive sinning, that mocks God's law and longsuffering mercy.
Joab did so in the murder of Abner, where he enticed him to foolishly walk outside the gate of the city of mercy.
