How do we know grace is greater than the law?

Answered in 3 sources

Grace is greater than the law because, while the law reveals our sin, grace abounds to forgive and redeem us through Christ.

The law exposes our sin and brings condemnation, as stated in Romans 5:20. However, where sin abounds, grace abounds much more through the sacrifice of Christ. The law cannot redeem us; it merely points out our shortcomings. The gospel, on the other hand, offers forgiveness and life through Christ, who fulfilled the law's demands on our behalf. Thus, grace triumphs over the law by providing a means of salvation that the law cannot offer.
