It is about Grace. Christ stood between an adulteress and the Pharisees who were going to stone her but the part that too often is forgotten is that she was told to “go and sin no more”. Grace isn’t a license its an activity in which we are freed from a debt of sin that we could never repay. It doesn’t make our sins right nor good nor acceptable but it gives us a way back from the dead for we were effectively buried in our sin. The following verse speaks to this very thing.
Romans 6:13
“Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”
Well said, Maelstrom.
