Christ cannot be the minister of sin because He justifies sinners without the law, reaffirming grace over works (Galatians 2:17).
In Galatians 2:17, Paul confronts the absurdity of claiming that Christ could be a minister of sin simply because believers are justified apart from the law. If Christ justifies us and we are categorized as sinners under the law due to our transgressions, it does not imply that He promotes sin. Instead, it highlights the truth that while we are inherently sinful, Christ's work establishes a new covenant of grace that liberates us from the law's demands. Therefore, to suggest Christ endorses sin is fundamentally misrepresenting His purpose of salvation and the radical grace offered through Him.
