Romans 6:14 “For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”
It’s critical to realize that the Law wasn’t intended for salvation. The commands given by God through Moses are designed to teach us what sin is and how mankind violates holiness. To lead a God-pleasing life, we must follow biblical principles, but doing so isn’t enough to get us into heaven.
The Law was created to lead us to Jesus for salvation; through it, we understand our inability to adhere to the Lord’s rules without His help. Galatians 3:24 states; “Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” And once we belong to the Savior, we have been set free from the penalty & domination of sin in our lives. Halellujah!
Have a blessed day,
