No one deliberately encourage sinning

If an ethical theory without directions for daily conduct is at best an incomplete theory, further emphasis on Scriptural injunctions are to the point in contrast with tendencies now and then apparent in Christian Circles To belittle ethical precepts as legalistic and sub-christian. The reverse of the same coin is the disrepute into which jesuitical casuistry has so justly fallen. It is probably unnecessary here to undertake a refutation of that extreme for of antinomianism, which tells us to sin that grace may abound. However lax some Christians may be, and however easily they may succumb to temptation, there seems to be no large body of professing believers who deliberately encourage sin. - Gordon H.
