Let me ask you. will these laws prevent your neighbor from killing you?
or would you rather your neighbor love you unconditionally (the way Jesus wants us to love) and thus have the thought of killing you never cross his mind?
The law of adultry sure did not help king david did it? or the law which said thou shalt not murder.. And he was an avid follower of the law, and said to be the one after Gods own heart.
So much for the law helping him, It did not help him, because it can;t it was never intended to do that

If one steals something, then goes to God for forgiveness by the sacrifice of Christ, are they forgiven?
Yes. Now let me ask, is the Law against theft still in force? Is it still sin to steal. If the same person steals again, does he still have to seek forgiveness from God or does God say "Oh, that's OK, I did away with that old Law that defined stealing."
So, let me ask, does grace do away with the definition of sin? Or does it allow us to be forgiven for sin?
