How does the law relate to freedom in Christ?

The relationship between the law and freedom in Christ is foundational in Reformed theology. Romans 10:4 states, 'Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believes.' This means that Christ's fulfillment of the law liberates the believer from its demands. The law, while it shows the holiness of God and our need for a Savior, becomes a means to highlight our need for grace rather than a means of salvation. Believers are free from the law's condemnation, enabling them to live according to the Spirit, who leads them into righteousness, thus allowing true freedom that enables them to serve God willingly and joyfully.
