Galatians 2:17 Howard Vos “If we seek to be justified by Christ alone and no longer put ourselves under the restraints of the law, perhaps in this way we are giving license to sin. If free grace in Christ encourages men to continue in sin, then He is made a minister of sin…God forbid!”

Galatians 2:20 Howard Vos “Verse 20 is one of the most magnificent verses in all of Scripture. It makes abundantly clear the fact that Christianity is not a matter of some legalistic form—of carefully checking off a list of dos and don’ts. It is a life. Moreover, it is not human effort trying to bring off a superior kind of morality but divine life surging through the individual.”

Galatians 2:21 Howard Vos “If there was the faintest possibility that man could procure his own righteousness, then the death of Christ was unnecessary. If the law could improve the standing of those who observed it as a rule of life, then Christ’s death did not satisfy the law and introduce a new and better relationship.”

Galatians 2:21 James Boice “Paul’s logic is incontrovertible. Yet many still pursue the fallacious logic of the legalizers. They suppose that to earn their salvation is somehow praiseworthy and noble, when actually it is vainglorious and ignoble. True nobility (and humility) is to accept what God offers. One must either receive God’s offer of salvation or insult Him.”
