Is saying "That's not a salvational issue" harmless, or does it reveal a deeper problem with how we approach sin, obedience and our relationship with God?

In this episode of the Saints Who Multiply Podcast, Shay examines this common expression within the church and explores why we need to be careful about how we use it.

While we are saved by grace through faith and not by our works, does that mean certain sins should simply be dismissed because we don't consider them a threat to our salvation?

Drawing from Romans 6:23, Romans 6:1–2, 1 John 5:3 and Hebrews 10:26, we explore the seriousness of sin, the importance of obedience and the danger of taking God's grace for granted.

Ultimately, our motivation for following God shouldn't simply be the fear of losing our salvation. It should come from a genuine love for Him and a desire to live a life that is pleasing to Him.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why all sin is serious before God.

• The relationship between obedience and salvation.

• How this saying can unintentionally encourage legalistic thinking.

• The danger of using God's grace to justify sin.

• What our attitude towards sin communicates about our relationship with God.

• How to respond when someone says, "That's not a salvational issue."

We are saved by grace, but grace should never become an excuse for complacency.

The question isn't simply how much we can get away with and still be saved, but how we can live a life that is pleasing to God.
