Grace doesn’t mean people are free to sin without consequence; it means they’ve been rescued from sin’s rule and brought under a new master. Everyone ends up serving something: either sin, which promises freedom but grows into bondage, shame, and ultimately death, or obedience to God, which flows from a changed heart and produces righteousness, sanctification, and eternal life. Those who are in Christ are genuinely made new, called to live like who they now are rather than returning to what never truly gave life. There are two masters, two kinds of fruit, and two very different outcomes.
