Law & Gospel Simplified

"By the law is the knowledge of sin;
by the gospel is the knowledge of righteousness,
"for therein is the righteousness of God revealed." Rom. 1:17.
As many as are of the works of the law are under the curse, because by the law is the knowledge of sin; as many as are of the faith of the gospel are delivered from the curse.

Yet it is also true that the very righteousness of God is in the law; because
---the law is but the expression of the will of God,
---it is only the transcript of his character."
