We are under grace, no longer under the law which can not save. Galatians 2:21 I do not void the grace of God, if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. Now we are married to another. Christ. If we were still under the law we would have something to boast in. Under grace we have nothing to boast in.

Since salvation by grace has come, the law has no more power over us. The Law could not save a sinner. Romans 11:6 Salvation is all grace, not works. Jesus said, by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Under grace we are under the perfect law of liberty not to be put back in bondage to the law. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him who justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

Now we live under the perfect law of liberty. The just shall walk by faith. Romans 3:26-28 There for we conclude that a man is justified by faith, apart from the deeds of the law.

Our sin debt is paid in full and we can no longer be condemned. John 3:18.

We are not to use grace for a license to sin, but where sin abounds grace much more abounds. And we are not made perfect in the flesh, only the Spirit. First John 1:8 If we say we have no sin we deceive our selves and the TRUTH is not in us. The Holy Spirit that lives in the believer can not sin. First John 3:9 But we still do every day all the time.

But our sin debt has been paid in full and we can no longer be condemned. John 3:18. But the flesh is not made perfect, only the Spirit in us is perfect.
