What does the Bible say about God's law and our inability to obey it?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible reveals that God's law demands perfect obedience, which is impossible for us to achieve on our own.

Scripture illustrates that God's law does not provide an avenue for us to gain righteousness through our works, as exemplified in Exodus 5. The Israelites were given an impossible task to produce bricks without straw, symbolizing how the law demands perfection while offering no means to fulfill its requirements. This causes misery, leading us to recognize our inability to save ourselves and ultimately directing us to Christ, who fulfills the law on our behalf.
Scripture References: Exodus 5:4-23, Galatians 3:23-24
