Jesus does not condone sin.

John  8:1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.  8:2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.  8:3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,  8:4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.  8:5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?  8:6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.  8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.  8:8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.  8:9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.  8:10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?  8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Always remember,  Jesus does not condone sin in any ramification. He is very very intolerant to sin. 

Anyone committing sin belong to the devil. 

1 John  3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 

Anyone and everyone biblically saved can not be committing sin. 

1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

God’s commandment is unchanging, you must not be sinning. 

1 John  2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

If you really have relationship with Christ, then you are under compulsion to depart from iniquity. 

2 Timothy  2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

This is because, iniquity ruins. 

Ezekiel  18:30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

Iniquity makes your prayers not to be answered. 

Isaiah  59:1 Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:  59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

Iniquity hinders good things from God to come your way. 

Jeremiah  5:25 Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.

Iniquity bring sicknesses and untimely death. 

Psalms  107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.  107:18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.

Iniquity ultimately sends you to hell. 

Matthew  7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.  7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?  7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

The grace of God is not a license for sinning, 

Romans  6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?  6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

But grace frees you from sinning. 

Titus  2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,  2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

The commandment of God is still unchanging,  you are not to be sinning. 

1 John  2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

Remember Jesus does not condone sin. 

Let us pray.
