What does the Bible mean by being set free from the law?

Answered in 1 source

Being set free from the law means that believers are no longer under its curse, as they have received salvation through Christ.

The Bible speaks of believers being set free from the law's demands and condemnation. Romans 6:14 states that we are not under the law but under grace. This signifies a radical shift in our relationship with God's commands; instead of striving to earn God's favor, we live in the freedom that Christ's sacrifice has secured for us. Galatians 4:21-31 illustrates that the law is like a taskmaster, while faith in Christ brings liberty. This freedom allows us to embrace our identity as children of God, serving Him out of love instead of fear, fulfilling the righteousness of the law through our new life in the Spirit.
