God is willing to forgive sin, but this does not mean he thinks lightly of it. God viewed sin so seriously that he gave his only begotten Son to make forgiveness possible (John 3:16, 1John 1:7, 2:2). If ever we start taking sin lightly, all we have to do is look back to the suffering Saviour on the cross. That will remind us of how seriously God vi...
Paul said that some of the Christians at Corinth had been forgiven of such sins as adultery, homosexuality, and drunkeness (1Corinthians 6:9-11). These and other sins cause disease and ruin of the physical body. They break up homes and families. They lose people their jobs. Even after God’s grace is applied and the sins are forgiven, this sort of d...
So we find that forgiven sinners must still offer relief, as far as possible, for hurt they have caused others. Zacchaeus for example saw the necessity for this (Luke 19:1-9). Forgiven sinners must still bear the pain and responsibility of the temporal consequences of their sins. Of course, God’s grace is available to help them do this, The point i...
Furthermore, the Bible warns even the forgiven, that sin "so easily entangles us" (Hebrews 12:1). Forgiven sinners have God’s grace to help in time of temptation (1Corinthians 10:12-13, Hebrews 4:16). However, they still have temptations and the force of habit to contend with. Forgiveness does not take the old habits and temptations away. It does, ...
The Bible says, "Do not give the devil an opportunity" (Ephesians 4:27). This warns us that the devil is opportunistic. When our sins are forgiven by God, the devil does not stop lying in wait for us. Indeed, the "roaring lion seeking someone to devour" may focus his attention on us all the more. (1Peter 5:8)
God has allowed us "space to repent" (Revelation 2:20-21), and time to conquer our habibual sins. That space, granted by grace, is entirely sufficient, but it is nevertheless finite. We must therefore be found "redeeming the time because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:16).
The psalmist pictured God’s grace as "the gate of the Lord" (Psalms 118:19-21).Through this gate of righteousness we can enter into fellowship with God. The promise of such absolute forgiveness is truly wonderful. It is marvelous in our eyes. We should rejoice in it and be glad. We should fully appreciate God’s grace, and let our lives reflect our ...
When it’s sin versus grace, grace wins hands down. All sin can do is threaten us with death, and that’s the end of it. Grace, because God is putting everything together again through the Messiah, invites us into life—a life that goes on and on and on, world without end.
Sep 10, 2000 · Objection: If justification is on the basis of Christ's righteousness, not ours, by grace through faith alone, then shouldn't we continue in sin that grace might increase? Answer: No! Reason: Because if you died to sin, you can't go on living in it. Or to put it bluntly: Dead people don't sin. The rest of Romans 6 is explanation.

Apr 14, 2023 · Most of all, we don’t deserve to go to Heaven, but in His grace, God has provided the way. He sent Jesus Christ to die for our sins, but we must be willing to turn from our sin and live for Him. By nature, we have no right to expect anything from God except His judgment. That’s because we’re sinners, and sin is rebellion against God.
Jan 23, 2024 · Answer. In Romans 6:1, the apostle Paul asks believers a rhetorical question, “What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?” (ESV). This question reflects a common criticism of Paul’s teaching, both in his time and ours. Critics argue that preaching about boundless grace could inadvertently provide a license to sin.
