If grace does not enough to satisfy our desire that keeps us from judgement then it is cheap grace. Because grace prevents God people who are sinners from being cursed by covering the sin. Grace is not a form of currency. It is the work that brings death to sin.If we make grace a currency then we can control it. But after grace dead people cannot respond.If I say under justification I am fully accepted forgiven and righteous.If I say that saving grace is free and full. If I say that I am already seated with Christ. But then I teach that in going through sanctification the grace is not free but cost my life, i am forgiven onlywhen I confess my sin, I am guilty when I dont do the right thing, and I lose my fellowship with God when I sin then I saying the justification is at war with sanctification. When I believe in a contradiction i believe two opposite truths that happen at the same time. I am nobetter than a person who believes in the big bang. This is why the details are so important.When we talk about sin we dont say that adultery is ok under justification but it is offense under sanctification. Who would talk like that in real life? We are saying that the justification programs us to understand the consequences of adultery and yet argues for ourinnocence if we have sinned. In other words justification is successful because it kills the opposition. Since we have been justified and in being justified we are becoming like Christ. The sanctification only goes one way.This is why we dont commit adultery.
