Why is living under grace important?

Answered in 1 source

Living under grace is important because it frees us from the law and motivates us to love and serve God.

Being under grace means we are no longer bound by the law, as seen in Romans 6:14, which says, 'For ye are not under the law, but under grace.' This grace empowers us to live a life of holiness out of love for Christ, rather than fear of punishment. Paul's teaching in Galatians 5:18 reminds us that being led by the Spirit means we are no longer under the law's constraints. The doctrine of grace encourages believers to respond to God’s love with obedience that stems from gratitude, rather than mere obligation. It transforms our motives and leads us to bear fruit that glorifies God.
