Law Brings Wrath - Romans 4:13-15

Romans 4:13-15
 For the promise to Abraham and his offspring that he would be heir of the world did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith. For if it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void. For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression.

There two groups of people in the world. They are the goats or sheep, the ones that will be judged by the law or those freed from that law, which comes from faith. 

When we stand before the judgement throne, this will be the most important thing whether we understand this and believe or not. 

The law remains and stands for all those that reject Christ. They will face the wrath of God. Those that accept Christ and His grace are beyond the law and in the body of Christ. There is no transgression in the kingdom.  The law was not able to accomplish righteousness, but it does stand in judgement.
