Purpose of the Law
What
the Bible Says about the Purpose of the Law
19 "What purpose then does the law serve? It
was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom
the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand
of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator does not mediate
for one only, but God is one. 21 Is the law then
against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law
given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been
by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined all
under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to
those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we
were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward
be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor
to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25
But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor."
