  9. Why the Guardian/LAW 2. To know my sins • (Rom 7:7) What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Let it not be said! But I did not know sin except through the law. For also I did not know lust except the law said, You shall not lust.

  10. Why the Guardian/LAW • To be trained • (Gal 3:23) But before faith came, we were kept under Law, having been shut up to the faith about to be revealed. • (Gal 3:24) So that the Law has become a trainer of us until Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

  11. Why the Guardian/LAW 4. To discern between good and evil • (Heb 5:14) But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, even those who because of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

  12. Why the Guardian/LAW 5. For sin to become exceedingly sinful • (Rom 7:13) Then has that which is good become death to me? Let it not be! But sin, that it might appear to be sin, working death in me by that which is good; in order that sin might become exceedingly sinful by the commandment.
