Romans 3:9-20
The purpose of the law is to:
- Humble us
- Make us accountable to God
- Help us to deeply sense our sinfulness
It does this very well! The law unveils more truth about us than we care to see. It reads our thoughts and weighs our every motive. The law knows and exposes the truth that we are wretched indeed!
And sometimes that is just what we need to hear.
