We are to love God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind, and our neighbor as ourselves (Luke 10:27) and, thereby, avoid the offense of sin which cost God His only begotten Son. Paul speaks against the concept of antinomianism in Rom. 6:1-2: "Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it?" We are not to use the grace of God as a means of sin. Instead, we are to be controlled by the love of God and in that way bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Gal. 5:22-25)."

The second half of the verse is a phrase that makes freedom conditional, based on [[morality]] and [[spirituality]]: "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit". Compare Galatians 5:13-25 which clarifies the meaning of "walk by the Spirit/walk in the Spirit".</ref> | | :"''There is'' therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus" Romans 8:1 KJV<ref>The second half of the Romans 8:1 is often omitted by those who teach "''freedom in Christ''" as being rooted in a fundamental antinomianism.
