My brothers,
its important to make clear that mercy and forgiveness as well as grace, never should be thought to be a justification to sin. Would you offend and insult a loved one just because he forgives you afterwards?
Would it not be far worse to then offend God, who gave us all freely, just because He would forgive us? Isnt it just what our brother Paul warned against when he wrote
>20The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more, 21so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
>1What then shall we say? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may increase? 2Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?
Didnt he warn us of allowing sin within our mist when he stated
>3But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed. 4Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving. 5For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Imagine you got into a big debt you cant get out of yourself, but your rich friend offers you to pay for it and set you free from the debt and promises you take care of you. Would you then go on to create more debt, amass more guilt, knowing you cant repay it, just because your friend will take care off? Or would you not rather be grateful and try to not rely on your friends grace? Likewise we should try our best to not amass more guilt upon our heads, as a sign of respect for Gods mercy, and thankfulness therefore, as well as a sign of love towards Him.
