The idea that grace might let us get away with sin is not how reborn people should think. Romans 6:1–14 says an attitude that asks “How much can I get away with?” belongs to the old, worldly life. In Christ we’re set free of that selfish motive, so as teachers we shouldn’t pander to it by avoiding grace. The avoid-punishment motive does the minimum to get by, but a love-for-Christ motive does the most it can. - Jack Klumpenhower
