Because the Law of Moses was fulfilled did not make it evil. Once again the nature of the fleshly mind is to judge evil when God fulfilled His own law by the life of Christ Jesus. The reason the law had to be fulfilled it did not remove our sins from us.

James 4:11 Don't speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

Hebrews 10:1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

The Law instead excited sin, convicted us, and condemned us as sinner unable to keep the law. The law was not evil, or unrighteous it was righteous and good, but we are sinners unable to keep it making us evil, not the law! However, because a person speak the truth of the law that it causes us wrath with God instead of peace, does not mean they are evil trying to nullify the law as unrighteous. God abolishes his own law, not some human talking about it.

Rom. 7:4 Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might bring forth fruit to God. 7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law, worked in our members to bring forth fruit to death. 7:6 But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter. 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn't have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn't have known coveting, unless the law had said, "You shall not covet."{Exodus 20:17; Deuteronomy 5:21} 7:8 But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead. 7:9 I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. 7:10 The commandment, which was for life, this I found to be for death;

Ephesians 2:15 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;

Galatians 5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

Sinless people do not need the Old law convicting them of sin. and/or wickedness. When people are sinful the laws of the flesh convicted them of their sins. But the sinless Son of God did not need the Old law, he was not judged by it, nor condemned by it, in fact, he was declared righteous by the Old Law. He alone, and none other was told by the law that he was righteous, and was reward the reward of being declare righteous without sin by the law, eternal life.

1 Timothy 1:9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

Galatians 5:4 You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.

A Christian's righteousness is not the law, that righteous condemned them as needing a savior. Christ is that savior by completing the contract with God (Old Covenant), sealing it with his righteous blood becomes a Christian's righteousness, not the Old Law. The State in this case God/YHWH abolishes the judgment of the Law against us by Christ Jesus righteousness.

Galatians 4:21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, don't you listen to the law?

Galatians 3:24 So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

1 Corinthians 1:30 But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

2 Corinthians 3:9 For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

To be in Christ, one must be dead too the laws of the flesh, not creating more laws of the flesh by rules and laws dead in Christ. The flesh is dead in Christ. A person is a new creation in Christ a spirit directed person sinless, thus, sinless people do not need laws of sin convicting them. They are not evil they are sinless, the law is for the wicked, not the sinless Son of God. Subsequently, if a person is in Christ they are a part of his life, sinless, to make accusation against body members of Christ by laws convicting them of evil and sin is too make accusation against God's chosen ones, Christ!

Rom.8:10 If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

Rom.8:31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 8:32 He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things? 8:33 Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies. 8:34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

Christ life in a Christian's declares them righteous, righteousness does not come from a work of law even if a person calls it by another name, love, or whatever, it is not God legal righteousness Christ paid for us by his precious blood.

Romans 10:4 For Christ is the fulfillment{or, completion, or end} of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
