We all know that God forgives us when we repent of our sins. But does that mean we can simply sin, then ask for forgiveness from God and He'll forgive us?
Of course not. That'll be taking God's forgiveness for granted. Jesus did say something like, "He who does not know [the law] and does not do it will be given many beatings but he who knows [the law] and yet does not do it will be given many more." So if we think that we are free to sin if we have been redeemed, well... you're in for a much heavier judgement. It's like nailing Christ onto the cross again and again without remorse.
