Above The Law?

For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace. -ESV
Romans 6:14

Some wrongly believe that the Bible teaches that we are no longer bound to keep God's Law. This is a complete misconception. Shall we assert that we are free to kill... steal... curse our maker... have sex with next of kin, etc? Or shall we say that we should keep this Law but not that? Do we not then make ourselves a judge over God's Law by such mentality.

If carefully read and understood, Scripture teaches that believers are free from the CONSEQUENCES of the Law because by faith we naturally do from the heart those things which are written in the Law.
--> Romans 2:14-16
14 Even Gentiles, who do not have God’s written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it.15 They demonstrate that God’s law is written in their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right. -NLT

If one compares the contexts of Paul's speeches concerning the Law, one will discover that the admonitions were aimed at correcting the pharisaical way of thinking that keeping the Law made one righteous. Paul's intended purpose in addressing the topic of the Law was for his hearers to comprehend that righteousness is by faith in Jesus and not by the works of the Law.
--> Galatians 2:16
16 know that no one is justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ. And we have believed in Christ Jesus so that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no human being will be justified. -HCSB

Paul never intended to imply that a believer is free from obeying the Law.
--> Romans 6:15-16
15 Well then, since God’s grace has set us free from the law, does that mean we can go on sinning? Of course not! 16 Don’t you realize that you become the slave of whatever you choose to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads to death, or you can choose to obey God, which leads to righteous living. -NLT

I think the NLT version of Romans 6:14 captures the essence of what Paul intended for us to understand:
--> 14 Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.

...this speaks quite clearly that because we are under grace; we are above the Law- because grace is greater. Not in the sense that we free from the Law; but by faith, the Law has been inscribed upon our hearts- the Law has become part of our being so that we naturally obey it.
