Gal.6:7-8
[7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
[8] For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting

Romans 6 1What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7For he that is dead is freed from sin. Dead men don't sin.
Salvation is not a license to sin. Never has been. Never will be.
Very true brother! Many think that "Once Saved, Always Saved", gives them Carte Blanche to do what ever they wantand they don't have to worry of the consequences.

It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. . .To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit MAY BE SAVED in the day of the Lord Jesus." 1 Corinthians 5:1,5
Hebrews 12:8 ...But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
There is no such thing as a license to sin. As we can see by the abouve verses God does punish his children who sin. Not by taking away their salvation but by chastising them in this life. If your getting away with sin it is because your not saved. In that case your punishment would be eternal damnation
Matthew 26:41 (kJV)
41Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Yes we will sin but our goal should be not to enter into temptation

This is very true. I have held Hebrews 12 as the book and chapter in the bible mostly written for me....lol... for about 6 years now.
