Why, then, the Law?
OVERVIEW - If a man is not justified from the works of the Law, what was the purpose of the Torah given through Moses at Mount Sinai? – Galatians 3:19 . In his Letter to the Galatians , the Apostle Paul declared that we are set right with God from the “ faith of Jesus Christ ,” and not “ from the works of the Law .” But if keeping the “ works of the Law ” does not justify us before God, logically, this raises the question: Why, then, the Law? What was the purpose of the Torah ? Paul answered this question in the third chapter of his letter.
