Misconception #1: Shall We sin that Grace may abound?

I am amazed at how many people do not study the Word in context! Why did Paul say this? The Above Scripture is from Romans 6:1. Romans 5:20 says something awesome, ' The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,' (NIV). What a phenomenon! He says, 'The more the sin, the more the Grace'! Glory to God! But, before some funny folks claim this as their grand license to sin, he adds a caveat in Romans 6:1, 'Shall we sin that Grace may abound?'. In other words, should the fact that the more the sin, the more the grace make us sin? He gives a splendid answer: God Forbid! But why? Is it because Grace would soon run out? No, an Eternal NO! Here's why: Romans 6:2, '..How shall we who ARE DEAD TO SIN continue in it any longer? Wow, this is mind-blowing and phenomenal! He points us to the TRANSFORMING WORK OF GRACE! We are DEAD TO SIN! A man who forgets this is the man who'll continue to lie and steal! God needs you to Know this! What a Joy! Halleluyah! #Epignosis #GreaterGlory
