Ok, so What am I doing wrong here?
Logically? Rhetorically? Morally?
Does this describe you?
People who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth... their thinking became worthless, and their senseless hearts were darkened. (chapter 1)
Not righteous. Without understanding. Not seeking God, but have turned away and become worthless. Don't do what is good. Throat is an open grave (etc.) No fear of God (chapter 3)
What should we say then? Should we continue in sin so that grace may multiply? Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it? (6:1-2)
Do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires. (6:12)
What then? Should we sin because we are not under the law, but under grace? Absolutely not! (6:15 ... you see, this is where I start to question if you've read Romans)
I could go on, but you are a waste of time. I do appreciate the chance to review these crucial passages though.
But if I ask for forgiveness, i shall receive it, that's the promise. And no sin is beyond absolution, right? That's a promise too. So putting the two promises together means that however bad the stuff I do is, if I seek salvation, I will receive it. The deal is just too good to not take optimal advantage of. Its a free license to do as I please. So long as I have time to repent before I die, that is.
