[God's children can't sin]
The Christian isn't sinless. He sins
less.
1 Jn 1:9

If you're truly born again, then you will obey His commands through me, His
servant. If you don't obey, then you were never reborn in the Spirit of God.
Right. His law is higher not lower than the Ten Commandments (Mt 5-7). He
enables men to live the Christian life (Jn 8:36).

...[I]f you think you have attained sinless perfection, you are simply fooling
and deceiving your own self.
Yeppers (1 Jn 1:8). The Christian will not live habitually in sin (1 Jn 3:9).

Peter sinned! That's scripture, too...
Peter and Judas betrayed Jesus. The former repented. The later did not. The
gospel includes repentance (Mark 1:15). Free grace proponents (2 Pe 2:1) exclude
repentance from their gospel (Gal. 1:6-12).

[Peter and Judas betrayed Jesus. The former repented. The later did not.] Before
one can repent one must first be aware of a need to repent.
Right. He must agree with God that he is a sinner in need of a Savior (Re 3:17).
Those who have a come in Savior but a stay out Lord aren't going in the rapture
(Lk 21:36). Cafeteria Christians preach a gospel which does not include
repentance (Ac 11:18).
Greasy gracer's 
(false converts) turn grace into license (Jud 4).
They
think that because they: signed a card, walked down an aisle, got baptized that
they are good to go (1 Co 10:12). Their liver shivers were irrelevant if they
never saw a change in their life (2 Co 5:17). Their spiritual goose bumps were
meaningless if they returned to their own vomit (2 Pe 2:22). The apostle John
said if you claim to know him but don't keep his commandments, you're a liar (1
Jn 1:6, 2:4).
