Perhaps Paul can explain this:

Galatians 3:23-25

Before faith came, we were held in custody under law, confined for the faith that was to be revealed.
Consequently, the law was our disciplinarian for Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a discipline.

Looks like we are free from under the Law, if we have Christian faith. Make any sense?

Being freed from the demands of the law is a far cry from throwing out the law, as you stated earlier. Paul's arguments in the whole of the book of Galatians shows us the importance of the law for the believer.

(I am not ready to rip the OT out of my Bible, as you implied earlier.)
