Why should Christians delight in God's law if they are free from it?

Answered in 1 source

Christians delight in God's law because, although they are free from it, they recognize its holiness and goodness.

Despite being free from the law, Christians delight in it because they understand its purpose and inherent goodness. Romans 7:22 states, 'For I delight in the law of God after the inward man.' The law, while it cannot justify us, serves to reveal God's character and the holiness He expects. Believers appreciate the law as it reflects the righteous standards of God and guides them in living a life that pleases Him, not out of obligation but from a transformed heart motivated by love.
