>> “Grace allows us to not be subject to the law.” <<

We are not “subject” to the law because his law is written on our hearts, and we are therefore by nature no longer sinning due to our natural state of obedience in him.

As John plainly stated in his first epistle, if you are still in transgression, you are not in him.
