Is Grace a License to Sin? Jesus was a friend of sinners. He ate in their homes and danced at their parties. He did this to show that God loves us all, regardless of who we are. And he did it to demonstrate that God’s grace is for sinners. It’s not for those who act holier than thou. Grace is for losers. It’s for addicts, abusers, drunkards, embezzlers, gamblers, gossips, gluttons, liars, crooks, swindlers, and spammers. Grace is for bad dads and frazzled moms and wayward daughters and prodigal sons. Grace is for those who need it. Religion, unlike Jesus, is no friend of sinners. Religion says God may love you if you act right, talk right, and hang out with the right sort of people. Religion will tell you that grace isn’t for sinners, but winners. It’s for those who play by the rules, color inside the lines, and do what they’re told. In other words, grace is for those who don’t need it. If you are struggling with sin, you probably know that religion is not your friend.
