In response to saying that the Christian is no longer bound to the law but is now bound to Christ, Paul makes clear that the law is still good. Paul shows us the purpose of the law and the fruit of the law, ultimately showing us our great need for Christ.
The purpose of the law (v7-8)
The law reveals sin (7)
The law awakens sin (8)
The fruit of the law (v9-13)
The law exposes the death that already resides within (9-11)
The law points us to our need for Christ (12-13)
