How does Christ abolish the law?

Answered in 1 source

Christ abolishes the law by fulfilling its demands and paying its penalty.

According to the message, Christ abolishes the law not by nullifying it, but by rendering satisfaction to its demands through His obedience and sacrificial death. This fulfillment allows believers to be viewed as having kept the law in Christ. Ephesians 2:15 highlights that the enmity created by the law was abolished in His flesh, establishing a new way of relating to God that is based on grace rather than law. Therefore, believers live under grace rather than being bound by the law, which was meant to expose sin and our need for a Savior.
