Justification by works alienates man from God, and renders any attempt at self-betterment doomed to failure from the start. In reality, working for salvation or sanctification is a product of pride. Sin existed before the Law of Moses was introduced, therefore none of its commandments apply for permanently dealing with sin. Does it mean that God waited until Sinai before He offered blessed assurance to sinners who were eager to be free from problem of sin? The Law could not be broken before it was given to Moses. “Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression” (Romans 4:15). Sin was not a violation (transgression) of the Law, but it was still sin. The Law was set as a temporary measure that was meant only to continue from Moses until Christ. The Law is God’s “Keep Off” sign to trespassers. The Law tells us that we are not permitted to enter for any reason, but just as with any sign prohibiting access, someone will attempt to disobey the order. That is where religion steps in, for it claims to offer, like the ticket tout, special access that avoids the prohibition.
