The 1,2,3 Steps of the Law

 “By one man sin came into the world, and death by sin. Romans 5:12. 

Sin is death. 

We were all  “dead in trespasses and sins.” 

If the law could make alive, surely righteousness would have come by it, and then there would have been no need of the promises of
God. 

But “the law worketh wrath.” Romans 4:15.

1-It shows the sinfulness of sin, 

2-making the offense which seemed trivial to abound, 

3-to appear just as it is in the sight of God."
