In this passage we notice two opposite temptations. One that focuses only on God’s grace and forgiveness as an open ticket to do anything they please; and other that focuses only on trying to be obedient to God and being morally pure to the point that they deny God’s grace.
How then do we live, how do we navigate these opposite temptations, how do we walk free from the bondage of sin and yet not under the unbearable pressure of the perfectionism.
