Why shouldn't Christians continue in sin if they are under grace?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should not continue in sin because being dead to sin means living a new life in Christ.

The Apostle Paul addresses the misconception that grace permits sin in Romans 6:1-2, rejecting the notion that grace encourages a lifestyle of sin. Instead, he asserts that believers are dead to sin and alive in Christ. This new life signifies a transformation where one cannot habitually live in sin. Continuing in sin would contradict the believer's identity as one redeemed by Christ and walking in newness of life. Thus, grace urges believers toward sanctification, demonstrating that true grace does not tolerate sin but empowers them toward righteousness.
