What makes anything about you worth having Christ, the Son of God, come and lay His life down, shed His blood for your sins and take your place on the cross and suffer death? What is there about you that would motivate God to do such a thing? The answer you give will reveal what is truly in your heart and if you fabricate an answer to pacify the hearer, that to will reveal what is in your heart. You better answer with the conviction of the Spirit, for if you do not, you will be known even as you are known according to your heart.

I notice that the responses to my posts are most often diversionary in nature. Questioning my character or other things, rarely addressing the scriptures in question.
I was look over the responses and I did appreciate what you pointed out in regards to Galations 5 and the word "Do.'
Do - prassō - A primary verb; to “practise”, that is, perform repeatedly or habitually (thus differing from G4160, which properly refers to a single act); by implication to execute, accomplish, etc.; specifically to collect (dues), fare (personally): - commit, deeds, do, exact, keep, require, use arts.
I had never looked that particular word up and indeed it means "habitually." I was in error when I said that "habitually" was not used in that context.
Nevertheless to imply that willful transgression does not separate one from God is clear error. Indeed those who "habitually" do those things will be disqualified from the kingdom.
Those who walk after the Spirit will not fulfill the lust of the flesh because they have crucified their flesh in repentance. Those who mortify the deeds of the body by the Spirit will live. Those who do not will die.
Many today attempt to create a grey area which excuses willful sin on occasion. Like I have said previously it only takes one act of willful presumptuous rebellion to separate someone from God. Willful rebellion is a fruit of a rebellious and defiled heart.
As to your question. What makes me worthy for Christ to offer Himself on behalf of my sin? Not a thing.
It is by God's gracious mercy that he endured my long standing persistent rebellion to His grace. There was nothing I did or can do to merit that mercy. It is purely by the grace of God that I walk in the light today.

First off, you don't need a license to sin. People sin without a license all the time 
"IS GRACE A LICENSE TO SIN? The power of sin is the law (1 Cor 15:56). Apart from law, sin is dead (Rom 7:8). Sin will not be your master, for you are not under law but under grace (Rom 6:14). Real freedom from sin can *only* happen apart from law, under grace. It is impossible for a person to sin less under law. It is equally impossible for a person to sin more under grace (as compared with law). The entire realm of law breeds sin, whether we realize it or not. The trouble with us is the way that we think we can label and measure sin, polishing.ourselves, but we tend to forget about pride.and self righteousness. The only solution is God's grace, which both forgives and equips us to live uprightly."

‎"Repentance saves lives, but preaching on repentance doesn’t lead to repentance! A law mind-set emphasizes what people must do (repent!), but grace proclaims what God has already done (everything!). A law mindset uses inferior incentives (fear, judgment) that lead to temporary changes in behavior, but grace (God is good and He loves you!) changes the hardest heart. If you want people to genuinely repent, preach the goodness of God (Rms 2:4)." -Paul Ellis

REPENT OR BURN!!!!!!!! JUST PLAYIN
I think i am starting to see what you are getting at. (not joking, i am just more of the type that looks at the do and do not lists so my way of addressing it was more ehh)
the sad thing is many who claim to follow our Lord (not all) think we have a get away with sin card and willingly seek sin and over the many years they claim to follow Him nothing changes in them (like i used to be my whole life)

No. God shows grace on you wen you sin.( He forgives you) If you ask Him to. But what I think is thatwhen you get saved and become a true Christian, you will not want to sin. Hey,Jesus loves you
God bless.
