Sometimes our resistence to forgiveness is that we are attempting to give Christ-less grace. A lot of times this shows up in "forgiving yourself" or brushing sin under the rug, and dismissing it in the name of "grace."
Does grace mean that sin doesn't matter? Is downplaying sin giving more grace or less? Gretchen Ronnevik and Katie Koplin talk about why true grace is from Christ, and why downplaying sin isn't necessary with the power to forgive that Christ's grace gives.
The grace of God does things in our lives, and sanctifies us. It cleans our sin. We talk about consequences and examples. We talk about trying to make sin "reasonable" and grace "reasonable" so that it is managable to us. When we confuse justification, sanctification, and vocation, we can easily misuse the law to think that we are getting more grace, or end up trying to manipulate situations.
