Romans 5:20 (KJV)
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.


Ayo: Kemi, that is wrong, you can’t be doing that, it is a sin.

Kemi: who made you my judge? The Bible says, “Judge not”, have you forgotten?

Ayo: Ah! But this is obvious, it is immorality.

Kemi: we are in the era of grace, grace covers for my sin. Read your Bible well. You’ll also find out that I am the righteousness of God, I cannot sin.

Ayo: that’s a wrong teaching; you can’t go far with that!

Kemi: when we get to heaven, we’ll understand.


Are we in the era of grace? Yes. Does grace cover for our sins? Yes, if it led to our salvation and freedom from sin. Are we the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus? Yes, if we are no longer slaves to sin and are in Christ Jesus.
What then is wrong with Kemi’s view of grace?

Grace is not a license for sin, it does not say “continue in sin and I will cover up for you”. No! Instead, grace teaches us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world (see Titus 2:12 KJV)

“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound” means that:

1. Although darkness may cover the world, your light will shine brighter; darkness will not overshadow your light. Isaiah 60:2 “For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.”

2. Although many will get corrupted, you will not be corrupted, instead, you will be strong and do exploit. Daniel 11:32 (KJV) “And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”

Go into today knowing that grace is the power that prevents you from being overcome by sin. If the grace you’ve found allows for unrighteousness, worldliness and godlessness, then, that is not the true grace.
