Did God send the law to prepare us to believe in it?

When humans refused to listen to the voice of the natural that declares God as Creator and lover of mankind, God provided the written law through Moses so that we might realize our need for faith in the Savior. He also sent his prophets to prepare the way for the Incarnate Word. The incarnate Son of God came to manifest to us the divine mysteries. The Apostle Paul says, “God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son” (Heb. 1:1–2).
