The law was given to teach mankind that mankind could never save him/her self by what they do. It was to show that mankind needed God to save them.
It is a shame that many in religions of today believe that if they try to keep the law and try to be good they will be saved. They ignore the fact that they can not keep the law. Some on this forum are doing just that. It shows that they will not accept the reason the law was given.
These scriptures tell us that we have assurance of salvation if we reach out to God and place our faith in what Jesus did for ALL OF MANKIND ON THE CROSS.
John 5:24-27
24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
25 Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.
26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,
27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin."

1 John 5:9-13
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.
10 He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son.
11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
