Galatians 5:18

"If ye are led (give yourselves up to be led) by (Greek) the Spirit, ye are not under the law." For ye are not working the works of the flesh (Galatians 5:16, Galatians 5:19-21) which bring one "under the law" (Romans 8:2, Romans 8:14). The "Spirit makes free from the law of sin and death" (Galatians 5:23). The law is made for a fleshly man, and for the works of the flesh (I Timothy 1:9), "not for a righteous man" (Romans 6:14-15).
