What does the Bible say about grace versus law?

The Bible makes it clear throughout scripture that salvation is not achieved by law-keeping but solely by grace through faith. In Galatians 3:24, Paul explains that the law served as a schoolmaster to lead us to Christ, emphasizing that it is not the law that justifies us but faith in Jesus. Moses, as a type of the law, underscores this point; though he gave the people commandments, it was always grace that saved them. The law was given to show us our inability and need for a Savior, which is fulfilled in Christ (Romans 8:3-4).
