How do we know that grace abounds where sin abounds?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible affirms that where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, illustrating God's incredible mercy.

Romans 5:20 states that where sin increased, grace superabounded. This profound truth does not suggest a license to sin but reveals God’s capacity to forgive and redeem even the greatest sinfulness. Paul anticipates objections to this grace, countering by asserting that believers, being dead to sin, cannot continue in it. The purpose of God's grace is to glorify Him by bringing sinners to repentance, thereby demonstrating the depth of His mercy rather than encouraging further sin.
