Romans 6:15-23

The entire purpose of chapter 6 is to drive home the point that grace is not about being a free pass to do whatever we want. Jesus dying and paying for our sins was much more than a legal transaction. It wasn’t just to get us off, but rather, it was the basis for restoring a living relationship with God. It wasn’t just to clear out our sin, but to change us so we could live a sanctified life that is worthy of being in relationship with a perfect God. It is supposed to change us.
