All that the passage in Romans says is that Christ is the telos of the Law. That can either mean that the law is dead and those moral directives in the ten commandments are no longer binding: free love everybody! Or it can mean that Christ is the goal of the law, which is a much sounder translation in terms of Biblical Theology and Ethics.


telos can either mean goal or termination.
