OSAS is not true as the Bible verses above clearly show.

Also, to "sin" is human. How bad do you have to "sin" to fall from his good graces? Is one "sin" too much? 50? 100?
The distinction between willfully violating God's law and ignorantly is made here in Hebrews.
Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries."

People will still sin after getting saved and Christ's blood continues to cleanse us from it.
1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
If you sin you got to repent of it and keep going.
