Actually, the grace of God actually empowers us to live holy not vice versa. Anyone who teaches that grace makes allowances for sin does not have a biblical understanding of grace. Rather, their understanding is carnal and self serving.

Grace doesnt make allowances for sin, but grace is the father that hugs, kisses, and places a robe and ring on the repentant son.....Luke 11-32

When most think of grace, forgiveness of sin is ussually the first thing that comes to mind. However, for the true believer, God's grace not only forgives us of our own trespasses, it transforms our hearts thus empowering us to forgive those who have committed trespasses against us which is just one aspect of the divine nature that we have access to through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. :)
