How do we know that the law is still relevant for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus affirms the ongoing relevance of the law, stating it will not disappear until it is fulfilled (Matthew 5:18).

The relevance of the law for Christians is rooted in Jesus' declaration in Matthew 5:17-18, which emphasizes that he did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill it. This means that the law serves as a guide for understanding God's expectations and moral order. Additionally, the law helps believers recognize their need for grace, as they are unable to uphold its demands perfectly. Thus, the law remains authoritative for instructing believers in holy living.
Scripture References: Matthew 5:17-18, Galatians 3:24
