The law is fulfilled and not necessarily manifest by the actions of the flesh. So self justify all you want.He gave it to Jesus so that we had permission to willfully violate His commandments? Or He gave to Jesus the full responsibility and weight of the curse of the law? Jesus bore our sins, so that we might have victory and be saved.
Notice:
Romans 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Galatians 6:2 - "Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ."
God expects to have a remnant people who will EXEMPLIFY His character! This is what it means to be a Christian. Or else, we're better off being atheists.
We are weak, and we fail. But Christ fulfilled where the law was weak. But we are to do our part of what we CAN do. If we WILLFULLY go against what we CAN do, this is called "transgression of the law", and we cannot be saved. This is rebellion, not submission to Christ.
