Legalism says God will love us if we change. The gospel says God will change us because He loves us.

Legalism breeds a sense of entitlement that turns us into complainers.

Our assurance is anchored in the love and grace of God expressed in the glorious exchange: our sin for His righteousness.

Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.

The law is God's first word; the gospel is God's final word.

Grace is upside-down, to-do-list wrecking, scandalous and way-too free. It's one-way love.
