You see Jesus said he did not come to abolish the law. He came to end righteousnes of obeying the law. Therein lies the difference. The law itself is holy, righteous and good, nothing wrong with it at all. The problem was the attached penalty which condemned man.
So, God removed the penalty of the law, Jesus died for our transgressions of it. He then put those laws in our hearts, meaning in our hearts we want to live as God desires us to live. I guess to some it is shameful to believe that. Terrible thing to believe Christians in their hearts do not want to steal, lie, covet, commit adultery etc. For that is what it means. Law as we all understand law to mean got abolished, for law always comes with an attached penalty. But the law inside believers has no penalty for transgression, for Christ died to pay our penalty
