His goodness leads you to repentance

Rom 2:4Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance

All of Gods grace, and all of the goodness of God has a purpose. When God extends his grace upon us, he has a goal. His goal is to lead us to repentance.

When Jesus was standing in front of the adulteress woman, he said, neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and SIN NO MORE: In other words, his grace, and his goodness were leading her to repentance.

Grace is not an excuse to sin, or to continue in sin. Grace is the opposite. It drives you away from sin, and leads you to repentance.
