Bob noted,
Many today and throughout history have used the sin of David and Peter to justify their continual gross indulgences.


"Theodosius the emperor, pressing that he might receive the Lord's supper, excuses his own foul act by David's doing the like; to... which Ambrose replies, "Thou hast followed David transgressing, follow David repenting, and then think thou of the table of the Lord."
