Rom.8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.

Let us define the law of sin and death, its scope is much larger then most Christian's have defined it in their doctrines. Paul in this case refers to the Old Law given to Moses, but sins law are applied to any law we judge by for controlling sins of the flesh. In Jesus Christ, there is no sins of the flesh, while he was on earth, and certainly not in heaven where he is found to gained immortal, and incorruptible life.

Christ Jesus set us free from sins laws, in this case free, means, freedom from being judged by the laws of sins, but what does this mean? It means as previous stated, Christ Jesus completed the Old Law by his perfect life dying and being made alive once again in the spirit world. The contract of the Old law was sealed by his blood and removed or set aside.

Furthermore, Christ Jesus replaced it with the New contract or Covenant created by his own righteousness under the Old Law, which he exceeded it (the Old Law) in his love for his Father.

Jesus then can rightly be called the law of the Spirit of life, but why? Because Christ Jesus is a “living law”, he lives and is the law of love, for us, and in us. The Old Law, or any law of sin, are dead law, or dead works, they do not live in us or produce life, they cannot judge and condemn us as being in the state of death, of (not in Christ Jesus). Whereas, Christ Jesus being alive in the spirit as life lives, and governors the lives of Christian's by the Royal law of love, that is, he being in them through God's Holy Spirit, making us a living faith onto the glory of God.

1 Peter 2:5 You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 10:20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.
