How do we know that grace abounds in the Gospel?

Answered in 1 source

The Gospel reveals that where sin increased, grace abounded even more, showing God's overwhelming grace towards sinners (Romans 5:20).

The principle that grace abounds even more than sin is rooted in Romans 5:20, which states, 'Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more.' This verse illustrates that while the law reveals sin and magnifies our failure, it simultaneously demonstrates the richness of God's grace in Christ. The message of the Gospel is that no amount of sin can outmatch the grace offered by God through Jesus, who died and rose again to secure our forgiveness. This truth comforts believers, reminding them that their sins, though grievous, are completely covered by Christ's sacrifice, illuminating the boundless mercy and love of God.
