What is the role of the law in salvation?

Answered in 1 source

The law reveals sin and establishes guilt, but it cannot justify; instead, it leads us to Christ, where true righteousness is found.

The law plays a crucial role in understanding our need for salvation. Romans 3:19 states that the law speaks to those under it, silencing every mouth and making the whole world guilty before God. Its purpose is to reveal sin and demonstrate that no one can achieve righteousness through law-keeping (Romans 3:20). Instead, the law serves as a schoolmaster that leads us to Christ, who fulfills the law's requirements (Galatians 3:24). In Christ, believers find the righteousness required to stand justified before God.
