Sister, the Bible is flat plain in regards to salvation, that what we need to Confess is Christ rather than our sins. This salvation gave us the right relationship with God and this kind of new relationship must translate our learning into living and show by our daily lives that we trust God's Word. Yet, oftentimes we fail him or at faults with others and we need to confess them in prayers to restore right fellowship (1 John 1:9) in this new kind of right relationship. We aren't perfect, only that we are sinners saved by grace.

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
