Legalists may appear to be righteous and spiritual, but legalism ultimately fails to accomplish God’s purposes because it is an outward performance instead of an inward change.
Maaaring magmukhang espiritwal at matuwid ang isang legalista, ngunit nabigo silang ganapin ang layunin ng Diyos dahil ito ay isa lamang panlabas na palabas sa halip na pagbabagong panloob.
