The Law of Sin and Death is not the Ten Commandments, Grandpa!
It is not being able to keep the Ten Commandments! That is what condemns man to death!
The actual Law is righteous and perfect.
Christ became the Second Adam to undo what the first Adam had done, separated us from God by sin.
We can not achieve the righteousness of the Law in our fallen state.
What Christ did for us, and by faith in Him, that righteousness demanded by God is freely given to us.
The Law of Sin and Death is the 10 commandments.
It shows your sin and condemns you to death.
It is BECAUSE it is righteous and perfect that it is the law of Sin and Death.
Romans 7:7-11
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me
free from the law of sin and death.
Galatians 2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
Romans 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled
again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
