It is better to say "Showing the depravity of sin is PART of the Law's existence." and "The purpose of the Law was to point people to Christ's Law of Love." To say that the Law's point purpose has to do with sin misses the point and stops short of the broader, more important, essential point which is Christ, the fulfillment of the Law.
We're in essential agreement in principle. I'm just quibbling about perspective and word usage. Sorry if it seems contrarian.

I see what you are saying. And I agree.
