       God’s grace is so great that any and all sin can be forgiven by him. Anyone who will willingly come to him can have all their sins blotted out. God takes the whiteout to your list of sins. Paul also said, back at the end of Romans chapter 5, that “as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness” (21, ESV). How does grace abound? How does God’s goodness abound to us? It abounds through righteousness. It abounds through us, as believers in Jesus Christ, living righteously. And see, there it comes again, we see that sin is not our friend. It’s not something we should be proud of, something we should want in our lives. We come to Jesus because we realize we have a sin problem, right? Definitely so. In no way, after coming to Christ, should willingly follow or live in anything that we have come to realize is sin.
