Romans 6:15, Free From the Law Not Lawless
The complacent Christian who received blessing and strength from God can let his guard down to yield to temptation, sinning against God. William MacDonald said well, “We are free from the law but not lawless. Grace means freedom to serve the Lord, not to sin against Him.” No, not so much as a little sin! The Apostle Paul is exhorting the Christians in Rome to spiritual vigilance, consistent holiness. He tells us that this is what the Christian life ought to be!
