For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace Rom 6:14
So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead,
in order that we might bear fruit for God. [SUP]

the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death Rom 7:4&5
Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law Rom 3:31

The only way you can love God as God wants you to love Him is if you know the penalty of sin has been removed from your life, if you do not believe that you cannot. In that knowledge is victory over sin
