Why is the law not the believer's rule of life?

Answered in 1 source

The law is not the rule of life for believers because we are called to live by grace, not by legalism.

In the sermon, it is clearly stated that the law of Moses is not the believer's rule of life. The Apostle Paul affirms that 'by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified' (Galatians 2:16); thus, believers are not bound by the regulations of the law. Instead, they are called to live according to the precepts of grace, which are grounded in love (Romans 13:10). The law serves to point us to Christ, who fulfilled the law on our behalf (Romans 10:4), and we are then motivated to serve God through love and not through the fear of legal penalties.
