What does it mean that believers are not under the law?

Answered in 1 source

Being not under the law means believers are free from the law's demands and condemnation due to Christ's sacrifice.

When scripture states that believers are not under the law, it signifies a complete release from the law's requirements and the consequent curse it carries. Romans 7:4 declares that we die to the law through the body of Christ, establishing that the Mosaic law is not the standard for a believer's conduct or relationship with God. Instead, the believer is guided by grace and motivated by love for Christ. This liberation allows for obedience rooted in gratitude rather than obligation, emphasizing that our righteousness is found fully in Christ, not in the law.
