Continue in sin?

"'Therefore if any who profess the gospel do not live according to it, they are sinners, it is certain, but not justified, and so the gospel is clear [Wesley, Notes on the New Testament, Galatians 2:20]. Simply put, though no true Christian holiness can precede justification, it must immediately follow it. Justification, properly speaking, ever occurs with regeneration; never one without the other."—The Theology of John Wesley, page 182.
