What the true man of God says is not just because I have been saved I can therefore act just as I please, but, he says that because I have been brought into this kingdom of the Son of God so that I may not live as the world lives but being made into the image of Christ I may be like Christ - Rom. 6:4, Eph 1:4; 4:24, Col. 1:13; 3.

Let us not therefore slander one another in saying that we do evil so that the grace of God may abound even more so, but let us as dearly loved elect children of God, who have been brought out of the domain of the kingdom of darkness (Ephs. 2:1-3), now take hold of a new nature so that the one who has saved us will be glorified and pleased through us (Rom. 9).
