God Has Done What the Law Could Not Do

by Alistair Begg

Romans 8:2–4
 (ID: 2757)

God’s law is perfect and holy. Despite our best efforts, none of us can keep it and approach Him on our own merits. Instead, as Alistair Begg explains, we must rely on what God did for us in sending His Son to die for sinful man. Through Christ’s sacrifice, believers are freed from guilt and empowered by the Spirit to live holy lives. Our obedience to God’s law then demonstrates our relationship to God through His saving grace.
