IF I AM SAVED AND ALL OF MY SINS ARE FORGIVEN, WHY NOT CONTINUE TO SIN?
In Romans 6:1-2, Paul addresses the notion of using grace as an excuse for sin, firmly stating that believers have died to sin and cannot live in it any longer. Those who trust in Christ are transformed into new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17), guided by the Holy Spirit to produce fruits of righteousness rather than indulging in sinful deeds (Galatians 5:19-23). Christianity stands apart from other faiths in its emphasis on God's work through Jesus, not human efforts for salvation.
After being rescued from sin's consequences and cleansed by Christ's sacrifice, it's inconceivable to return to a life of sin. Romans 6:11-15 underscores the call to live in righteousness, rejecting sin's dominion and offering ourselves to God as instruments of righteousness. For the truly converted, living in sin is not an option; though they may stumble, they abhor sin and seek deliverance from its grip.
Those who claim Christ but persist in sin should question the authenticity of their faith (2 Corinthians 13:5), for genuine conversion brings about a profound change in desires and actions.
