If we are saved, can we just go and keep on sinning?

Question:

If we are saved, can we just go and keep on sinning?

Answer:

Romans 6:1,2: “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?”  How can we who are saved continue to live in the lifestyle that the Lord saved us from?  God forbid!!!  If the attitude is that I since I am saved, I can “do what I want,” then the salvation would surely be questioned. This is not the attitude of one who truly knows the Lord and His salvation. If we do sin, because of the indwelling Holy Spirit in us, we would be convicted of those sins. Peter denied the Lord three times, but when the Lord turned around and looked at him, Peter “went out and wept bitterly” (read Luke 22:54-62).

We were challenged to look up the different times in the Scriptures that the Lord Jesus turned to look at someone.
