OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BY FAITH NOT BY OBEYING THE LAW.
(Romans 10: 4) For CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW for RIGHTEOUSNESS to everyone who believes.
(Galatians 2:21) I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
The law condemned every man but Christ gives righteousness to EVERYONE who believes.Christ ended the era of the law.We do not talk about consequences in Christ. We talk about our confidence in Him.(Phil 1: 6) Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. He is able to keep us in a perfect relationship of righteousness through faith in Him. We know that the law brought condemnation that made all men guilty before God. So consequences comes as a punishment to sin but now that Christ has ended the law there is no more consequences for sin. Because without the law there will be no sin and without sin there will be no consequences. (Rom 4:15) Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.
We have been made right with God. He is no more looking for faults from man. The Law exposed every human error. So God already knows our shortcomings and decided to cover them with His love through Christ.We are made right with God not through keeping the ordinances of the law with worketh wrath instead of righteousness.
To move from wrath to love we have to accept Jesus Christ into our live and live in the bossom of God's love where righteousness reign not sin. AND IT IS FREE.
