Does Grace Really Gives Us The License To Sin? by sportskid(m): 3:44pm On Feb 07, 2016
I have often heard a lot of Christians say that the preaching of Grace (Gods unmerited favour through Christ) will make Christians sin continually. The bible categorically said we are saved by grace and not by the law or our works(see romans 3,4,5).And come to think of it,I believe no one can qualify for salvation,without the grace of Christ.But I am often worried when Christians even pastors kick against grace.please what do you guys think.....

Romans 6:1 shall we continue in sin and say grace should abound.

God forbid

Are you minding the yeye pastors. Kicking against the only thing that can make them stop sinning. Weird. undecided

Grace includes but is not limited to forgiveness of sins through faith in Christ.

Grace teaches us to deny worldly lusts and ungodliness and to live soberly, righteously and godly in THIS PRESENT world Titus 2:11,12


Any other 'grace' preached that does not accomplish these in us is a deception.

It does not give one licence to sin but licence to live a more HOLY, GUILTLESS, RIGHTEOUS LIFE.

The problem with many believers is that they are too focus in HUMANITY rather than DIVINITY.

No one is perfect, righteous or holy in HUMANITY(even in your holiest form of humanity) that's why the bible says; that our righteousness is like filthy rags before God.

But by DIVINITY we are holy as the lord, HOLY NATION, ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, CHOSEN ONES and incorruptible. As jesus is, so we are.

Grace does not give licence to sin! Man does not need a licence to sin! As a human being you are prone to fail but we focus on He who has made us righteous. The Bible says "He was made to be sin who knew no sin so that we can be made the righteousness of God in Christ". Our righteousness is of Him. All our efforts, works, keeping of laws avail nothing! Understanding the Grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ is what gives one the power to live above sin, the knowledge that you have been declared righteous frees you from the guilt and condemnation that so often binds people and keeps them ever sin-conscious with the result that they remain in that never ending cycle. Be Jesus conscious! Be Grace conscious! Be Cross conscious! As you focus on His abundant Grace, the power of sin, bad-habits, addictions get broken!
