God’s Law and The Godman
Christ was born ‘under law’ in the sense that He was born of a woman and was therefore fully human and subject to temptation and the requirements of God’s law just as all human beings are.
Christ is God in flesh – both fully God and fully man, He is not ‘Son of Adam’ and is therefore not subject to the bondage and curse of God’s law as are all the descendants of Adam.
Christ is the unique ‘Son of God’ (The Godman) who fulfilled God’s law by living a sinless life and becoming our sacrificial lamb.
