Jeremy Myers, i think you are wrong and David is right, so many out there are preaching you can live any way you want and be right that Grace covers any sin, they really believe that, that is

not break them, we are to live a
righteous and holy life as possible, the bible plainly list a whole list of things if we live in will
not to to heaven unless we repent, if we die while in these sins, we will
not go to heaven, what is the difference, between someone who said a prayer and someone who did
not, and they are living the same way, none, i think, if we are truly saved it should be hard to do these things let alone live and do them everyday, i would be afraid to tell
people that it does
not matte grace covers their sins, i really think it is the slip ups that we are convicted of by the Holy Spirit and we ask for forgivness, how can anyones heart be right with God and they have sex all the time out of marriage, lie, break every commandment of God, i don't think this is meaning grace covers those sins, until they repent and ask for forgiveness, a lot of

people the wrong way,
not saying you are one of them, but be careful, everything we teach or preach must line up with the word of God, God hates sin,
