What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid! How shall we, that are dead to sin, still live in sin? - Romans 6:1-2

I used that word repentance for a reason. You keep arguing against it so that grace may abound.

Your position is not exactly scriptural according to Paul himself.

Either you're not reading my posts or you don't understand the what scripture is saying to you. Your accusation against me (let's sin so that grace may abound) was & is the same accusation against Paul, the preacher of grace. My answer to you was and is the same as Paul:

Although when sin abounds grace does yet much more abound (Rom 5:20), how shall we who are dead to sin live any longer therein? (Rom 6:2). For sin shall not have dominion over you for you are not under the law but under grace (Rom 6:14).

Either you don't understand or don't like what God's Word is saying in these verses. A lot of people (then and now) don't like the gospel of the grace of Jesus Christ because it is too easy (for us, not for Jesus who did it all on the cross) and void of man's pride and self effort and is an offense to those who hold on to the law (Gal 5:11).
