So my friend, does it not all broil down to love or not to love instead of sin or not to sin? When we, the child of God, do not love then we sin and it is then that we Christians have an Advocate with the Father, understanding that we are not under the Law but under His Spirit as our Schoolmaster.
Thus, the necessity of follow the Spirit where He leads, so that we love and not stumble.
