The Bible teaches that Christ fulfilled the law perfectly on behalf of His people, as the law reflects God's character which man is unable to keep.
The relationship between Christ and the law is fundamental in understanding salvation. The law, which is an expression of God’s character, is holy and demands perfect obedience. However, Romans 3:20 states that 'by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight.' This underscores the inability of man to fulfill the law, as the law looms over us, pronouncing us guilty. Christ, being the God-man, came under the law as described in Galatians 4:4, to redeem those who were under the law. He did this by living a life of perfect obedience to the law in thought, word, and deed, ultimately being the only one capable of satisfying its demands.
