The Apostle Paul Addresses Two Key Questions in Romans 6:

Shall I continue sinning to increase grace? (Romans 6:1) Shall I persist in sin now that I am no longer under the law? (Romans 6:14)

These questions often arise when individuals fail to grasp the purpose of the law, which is twofold: to make us aware of sin (Romans 3:20) and to guide us to Christ (Galatians 3:24, 1984 NIV).

Today, the purpose of the law is often misconstrued. As 2 Peter 3:16 warns, 'His [Paul's] letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
