ummmm (hahaha)....well let's see, since, through the law, sin is INCREASED...and Matt 22 shows Jesus explaining which commandment is the greatest in THE LAW, His reply would suggest that any self righteous effort by man to try and attain to loving Christ with absolutely all of heart, mind and soul, will infact result in the MOST sin...(hahaha :-))

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.
Mat 22:38 This is the great and first commandment.
Mat 22:39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
Mat 22:40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets."

how's this translation of Romans 5:20,

Romans 5:20 (The Message)

20-21All that passing laws against sin did was produce more lawbreakers. But sin didn't, and doesn't, have a chance in competition with the aggressive forgiveness we call grace. When it's sin versus grace, grace wins hands down. All sin can do is threaten us with death, and that's the end of it. Grace, because God is putting everything together again through the Messiah, invites us into life—a life that goes on and on and on, world without end.
