What does the Bible say about being freed from the law?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that through Christ's death, we are freed from the law's condemnation and can serve under grace instead.

In Romans 7, the Apostle Paul illustrates that a woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives, but if he dies, she is released from the law of her husband. This imagery of marriage signifies that we were bound to the law due to sin, represented by the figure of Uriah. However, Christ's death fulfilled the law's requirements, thus releasing us from its hold and enabling us to be united with Him. We now serve not in the oldness of the letter but in the newness of the Spirit, free from the condemnation of the law, allowing us to have a genuine relationship with God through grace.
