Often it is said..
The law is keeps us from sin!
We know sin was in the world before the law.Yet scripture is quite clear..
1 Corinthians 15:56
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
And we know that the more Paul tried to fix his sin,via the law,it got worse..
Romans 7:5
For when we were controlled by the sinful nature, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, so that we bore fruit for death.
Romans 7:11
For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death.
In Galatians we see that they were bound in sin..
Galatians 3:22
But the scripture has imprisoned all things under the power of sin, so that what was promised through faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
Under what conditions?
Now before faith came, we were imprisoned and guarded under the law until faith would be revealed.
I say scripture says that the law is powerless in stopping sin,in fact is strengthens it.
What say ye?
