I do not know one Calvinist that believes a child of God can continue to live in willful sin.

The problem is that many WILL use that teaching for justification of willful sin. I have known some people with the osas teaching who were very godly people. They seen it like you, but the teaching is bad across the board because it sends mixed signals. Paul mentions people who have backslidden and in order for someone to have backslid they must have been in a right walk.
Osas is kind o f like predestination, there are scriptural references to base them from but they will not ballance out with all the scripture. I believe it is a dangerous teaching which will cause many to fall.
