Message Summary

About this message

Marv answers why the law was given if salvation rests on promise and grace, describing it as a temporary moral fence that exposes sin rather than a means of life. He presents the law as inferior to grace and as a schoolmaster leading to Christ, after whom believers are children of God by faith and clothed with Christ rather than defined by the old distinctions of the law.
