The Law Was Our Tutor

At this time I would like to open up for you the relationship between the law and the promises so you will see that God uses both the law, and His promises for very specific reasons. We need to see, 1st of all – That the law cannot give spiritual life, but the promises are given to show us the importance of faith in Jesus Christ. 2nd – That one of the law's main purposes was to be a tutor to lead us to Christ. And 3rd – That once faith in the promise had come, we were no longer under a tutor, for we are sons of God.
