# The Law Points to Our Need for the Gospel Exodus 20:1-17 (the Ten Commandments) reveals God's holy standard and humanity's inability to perfectly keep His law, thereby exposing our need for a Savior. As Paul later explains, "the law was our guardian until Christ came" (Galatians 3:24), showing us our sin and driving us to depend on God's grace rather than our own righteousness. The commandments demonstrate that salvation cannot come through law-keeping but only through faith in Christ, who perfectly fulfilled the law on our behalf.
