As believers, what is our status in relation to the Law?

• A. We are free from the Law in Christ.
• B. We are bound to keep the Law to remain saved.
• C. We reject Christ's fulfillment.
• D. The Law defines our identity.

Answer: (A)

In Christ, believers are free from the Law and live under grace. Christ fulfilled the Law, and through his death and resurrection we are united with him, dead to the Law’s authority so we may belong to another—to him who rose from the dead. This means the Law no longer governs our righteousness for salvation; faith in Jesus and the Spirit producing fruit become our way of living. The Law’s purpose was to reveal sin and point us to Christ, not to justify us or define our ultimate identity. The other ideas don’t fit because salvation isn’t earned by Law-keeping, Christ’s finished work is what delivers us, and our identity isn’t defined by the Law but by our union with him.
