GRACE ABOUNDS

Text: Romans 6:1 

 *What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?* 

Do you know that the opposite of grace is sin?

Romans 5:21 shows that grace is the opposite of sin.

It says that "...as *sin reigned* unto death, even so *grace might reign* through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord".

The scripture above makes us understand that sin reigns unto death, while grace reigns (through righteousness) unto eternal life. When sin reigns, it gives birth to death, and when grace reigns, it gives birth to eternal life.

 *Where and When grace reigns, sin cannot prosper. If grace is truly reigning in your life, then the power of sin is broken.* 

"...But where sin increased and abounded, grace (God's unmerited favor) has surpassed it and increased the more and superabounded"

(Romans 5:20; Amp).

Don't be deceived by the wrong concept snd teachings of Grace flying all around. Grace is not the icing sugar on the cake of your sin stricken life. 

It is rather the cake and the icing sugar itself. It makes the whole of your life beautiful in and out. It terminates the power of Sin.

When grace accosts a sinner, he sets him free from the bondage of Sin.

When Grace meets with an addict, the power of addiction breaks instantly.

When Grace walks into the life of a poor man, poverty turns to riches. (2 Cor. 8:9).

When Grace meets with insufficiency and lack, abundance takes over. (2Cor. 9:8).

 *Sin ceases where Grace abounds.*
