Exactly. Those who believe in the concept of Eternal Security or "once saved, always saved" often overlook this little detail. Christ taught us what to do with our lives and one of those things was to leave sin behind. He also taught stuff like using our time and resources to help those less fortunate. I heard an old preacher one time say "If Christians just spent their time and money doing what Christ taught they wouldn't have any time or money left to engage in sin".

Thank you for sharing that. As you can imagine, I don't normally get many people agreeing with this, for so many are believing that they can just give lip service to the Lord and they have forgiveness of all sins and heaven guaranteed them. But if they read the Scriptures in context, they can't miss it that faith in Jesus involves leaving our sins behind us and following our Lord wherever he now leads us, in obedience to him as our Lord - all because of what Jesus did for us on that cross, by the grace of God, and in the power of God, for the glory of God.
