Romans 7:7

The Law and Sin

7What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, aI would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if bthe law had not said, “You shall not covet.”

19Why then the law? cIt was added because of transgressions, duntil the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made, and it was eput in place through angels fby an intermediary.

Galatians 3:22

22But the Scripture gimprisoned everything under sin, so that hthe promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given ito those who believe.
