The Nature of Sin and Grace

Sin presents an opportunity for God to showcase His grace through forgiveness, with greater sins leading to more remarkable displays of grace. However, this perspective can lead to a misunderstanding of salvation, where some might perceive grace as a license to continue sinning. Paul addresses this notion, emphasizing the importance of recognizing that if one has died to sin, they cannot keep living in it. The underlying theme is that while grace offers forgiveness, it also demands a transformation towards righteousness.
