How do we know the law serves a purpose in Christianity?

Answered in 1 source

The law serves to convict of sin and highlight our need for Christ as the ultimate solution for transgressions.

The law's purpose in Christianity is clearly illustrated in Scripture, particularly in Romans 7, where the Apostle Paul discusses how the law provides knowledge of sin. It shows that without the law, we would not understand our transgressions. Furthermore, the law functions as a tutor, leading us to recognize our need for a Savior—Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection, He fulfills the requirements of the law and offers salvation based on faith, not merits of the law.
