In chapter six, we get Paul's famous description of baptism as the work of undergoing our own death early. This is how you move from one law to the next: You have to stop worrying about whether or not you're loved and give yourself entirely over to the project of loving you to let yourself die. Love demands that we do what's good for other people; allowing ourselves to be abused does not make us a bad person.
Dr. Adam Miller continues to discuss grace, merit, and the law as they relate to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
