For the Lawcan never, by the same sacrifices
which they offer continually year by year, make
perfect those who draw near. Otherwise, would
they not have ceased to be offered? But in those
sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year by
year. For it is impossible for the blood of bulls
and goats to take away sins. Hebrews 101-4

it never be! How shall we who died to sin still
live in it? Romans 520-62

What is legalism?
knowing that a man is not justified by the works
of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus I
do not nullify the grace of God, for if
righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ
died needlessly. Galatians 216,21
Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit,
are you now being perfected by the flesh?
