Romans 5:20 The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
As believers, we have added benefits through grace that the world does not have. One of those benefits is the forgiveness of every past, present, and future sin. Our forgiveness comes through the blood of Jesus.
So, if we sin, we don’t have to feel guilty or ashamed. We can simply receive our forgiveness that has been made available through Jesus and move on. Does this mean we can continue to sin whenever and wherever we want because of our forgiveness through grace?…No (Romans 6:1).
Although our sins have been forgiven, those sins will have consequences attached. For instance, if we become upset and decided to curse out our supervisor, we’ve been forgiven of that sin but, the consequence is we may be fired from our job. Or, if we continue to heavily drink alcohol and continuously get drunk, we’ve been forgiven of drunkenness but, the consequence of that sin may be long term health issues with our liver or other parts of our body.
Know that you have been and will always be forgiven. Receive and thank God for this forgiveness.
