Dead to Sin, Alive with Christ

Dead to Sin , Alive with Christ Excerpt ‎Paul had just written ( in Rom 5:20 ) that where there is an increase in sin there is an even greater increase in grace. So the question was bound to arise, Why not continue in sin so the greatness of God’s grace may be seen more fully? The question may have arisen from antinomian sources that [purposelessly] misconstrued the doctrine of justification by faith as providing an excuse for a sinful lifestyle. Mounce, Robert H. Romans . V ol. 27 . Nashville: Broadman & Holman Publishers, 1995. Print. The New American Commentary .
