1 Timothy 1:8

8 Now we know that the Law is good, if a man uses it in the way it should be used,

1 Timothy 1:8 In-Context

6 From these some have drifted away, and have wandered into empty words.
7 They are ambitious to be teachers of the Law, although they do not understand either their own words or what the things are about which they make such confident assertions.
8 Now we know that the Law is good, if a man uses it in the way it should be used,
9 and remembers that a law is not enacted to control a righteous man, but for the lawless and rebellious, the irreligious and sinful, the godless and profane--for those who strike their fathers or their mothers, for murderers,
10 fornicators, sodomites, slave-dealers, liars and false witnesses; and for whatever else is opposed to wholesome teaching
