Calvin: Jesus Is Our Lawkeeper

For the Lord promises nothing except to perfect keepers of his law, and no one of the kind is to be found. The fact, then, remains that through the law the whole human race is proved subject to God’s curse and wrath, and in order to be freed from these, it is necessary to depart from the power of the law and, as it were, to be released from its bondage into freedom.
John Calvin | Institutes of the Christian Religion, 3.17.1.
