In what way is the law our schoolmaster?

This subject can be very different from what we think.  A schoolmaster is a teacher or master who is in charge and teaches their students about certain subject.  We are talking about the law and who gave the law to us but Jesus, our Lord, our teacher or master to gives us instruction in how to live our lives. We cannot be saved by observing the law according to Gal 2.  However, we know our inherent depends on what we do in this life.  Jesus tells us from John 15,   if we will obey His commands, you will remain in His love.  These are strong words.  John tells us “This is love for God: to obey his commands.”  More strong words, look at 1 John 2 and 3.  John said, “The man who says, "I know him," but do not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him.”  We are to follow Jesus in what He did, how he did it, why He did it and how did he live.  Yes, Jesus was a Jew, be He wrote and spoke the Old Testament and follow its laws because he does not change. We know that when the millennium starts, then all people will follow the laws of Jesus and His appointed times (feast days).

This is how we know we are in him: {6} Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.

(1 John 3:22-24 NIV)  and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him. {23} And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. {24} Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
