Notes

Romans 6:14

You are not under law: With the coming of Christ, the period ruled by the law of Moses came to an end (see Galatians 3:19–25).
under grace: God has always acted toward his people with grace. However, grace now rules the new era in which Christians live in Christ. Compare John 1:17.
