It is difficult, and the balance is messed up. On one hand you have people being taught that because of grace you are covered (out of context) and in other brick and mortars you are taught that everything is a sin. Grace is a free gift. We lose sight of that thinking we can do or be a certain way. We also lose sight of that thinking we can earn it. My perspective would be because of grace I am set free, and always being mindful of that controls the balance. Even being born again we have the ability to sin.
