¹ That which was from þ^e beginning, which wee haue heard, which wee haue seene with our eyes, which wee haue looked vpon, and our hands haue handled of the word of life.

² (For the life was manifested, and we haue seene it, and beare witnes, and shew vnto you that eternall life which was with the Father, and was manifested vnto vs.)

³ That which wee haue seene and heard, declare we vnto you, that ye also may haue felowship with vs; and truely our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Sonne Iesus Christ.

⁴ And these things write we vnto you, that your ioy may be full.

⁵ This then is the message which we haue heard of him, and declare vnto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkenesse at all.

⁶ If we say that we haue felowship with him, and walke in darkenesse, we lie, and doe not the trueth.

⁷ But if wee walke in the light, as he is in the light, wee haue fellowship one with another, and the blood of Iesus Christ his Sonne clenseth vs from all sinne.

⁸ If we say that we haue no sinne, we deceiue our selues, and the trueth is not in vs.

⁹ If we confesse our sinnes, hee is faithfull, & iust to forgiue vs our sinnes, and to cleanse vs from all vnrighteousnesse.

¹⁰ If we say that we haue not sinned, wee make him a liar, and his word is not in vs.

Dan...these scriptures should answer your question.
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.

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Are we to confess our sins simply by talking to God privately in prayer or rather, by confessing to a priest of God?
I believe that, confession in this context means both. Glory be to God for His Grace.

God is light,if i keep his commandments 1:23 God who is light Dwells in me and i dwell in him 1:24 its impposible for me to walk in darkness because in him is no darkness at all i then have fellowship one with another God and his son Jesus if i have fellowship with you i am not talking about frendship but the fact that you and i dwell in god and god dwells in us because we conffess that jesus is his son 1:4-15

i believe the word of the LORD, his word is truth and trustworthy, therefore we all have sinned, and sin is yet in our reach, i also believe that we yet sin, but not willingly so to speak, we as believers hate sin, and in our soul exixtence we are cleansed in and from the bllod of JESUS.

The chapter gives us the reassurance that repentance is an ongoing process and through our walk in the light we will be cleansed and highlights the fact that confession and repentance is the lifestyle of a believer.
