Sin Can No Longer Hold Me Down. I Have Got The Victory In Christ Jesus

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

Grace-the unmerited, unearned, undeserved favour of God-is more abundant than all of your sins. Oftentimes people become sin-conscious and everything they talk about is laced with sin, as though what sin did in Adam was more powerful than what Jesus did in the new creation.

Our text today is very comforting: “[. . .] But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound” (Romans 5:20, KJV). The Amplified version of the same text is as follows: “[. . .] But where sin increased and abounded, grace (God’s unmerited favour) has surpassed it and increased the more and superabounded” (Romans 5:20).

What a knockout to the sin in our lives!…
