Sinners that preach their sins only 'limit' their fellowship with God, while yet being saved by God, think that God is a respecter of persons.
They are saying that His salvation is not for reconciliation to fellowship with Him as sons, but salvation is only for no more judgeing sinners, that behave not as His sons.
There is no salvation of God without fellowship with God, and there is no fellowship with God while still walking in darkness.
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Those continuing in sins and trespasses on earth are still walking in darkness of the world, and do not have fellowship with God in the Light.
Them not walking in the Light of Christ on earth, are therefore not cleansed of their unrighteous sins.
Those not cleansed by the blood of Jesus are not saved.
And so, those not fellowshipping with God and walking with Him in the true Light, where there is no darkness of unrighteousness at all, are not being saved at all.
