The whole reason the law was instituted was to bring people to Christ. Nobody could live according the whole law until Christ came and fufilled all the requirements of it. The law wasn't destroyed, but by faith in Christ we are no longer the law His rightousness is imparted to us. Paul refers to this as living under grace. Read Romans 6:14 and Galatians 3:10-14. As verse 11 states "Clearly, no one is justified before God by the law..." (NIV). The book of Galatians was written specifically because Jewish christians were trying to convince new Gentile converts that they must follow the law and Paul is chastizing them for returning to the law after having been freed from it by faith in Christ.
Lets talk about paul.. why did he take the vow?? Because he did not believe in jesus..
