Romans 3:20 (AMPC) states that [the real function of] the Law is to make men recognize and be conscious of sin [not mere perception, but an acquaintance with sin which works toward repentance, faith, and holy character].
For the born-again believer in Christ, Romans 6:14 shows they are no longer under the Law as slaves, but under grace as subjects of God’s favor and mercy. Still, the believer day by day should be in the process of reading and obeying the Word of God which is renewing their mind, thereby transforming them from being carnal into thinking and acting in accordance with the mind of Christ. While we still work through this transformation, we should not forget the two importance commandments of Jesus in Matthew 22:37-40. Over time we should not have to focus on them because as we are being transformed we will realize we are doing both without thinking.
