It's unfortunate that many take advantage of that grace and "continue to sin so that grace may abound." There's nothing like knowing that you are loved by a love that cannot be earned, thus, cannot be lost.

That emphasis is at the heart of what grace is: treating people better than they deserve.” (Feb 25, 2007) I dig your third paragraph.
