However, that is just not so. Grace permits the possibility of abuse, yes. However, grace in no way encourages disobedience. A believer who walks in darkness will stumble and fall and hurt himself every time. There is no such thing as sinning with impunity.
Sin never pays.
In addition, grace promotes obedience because of the gratitude it engenders. Those who understand and accept God's grace are filled with a strong feeling of gratitude for what the Lord has done for them. This gratitude prompts us to loving obedience. P.O. Box 167128, Irving, TX 75016-7128.
