" Galatians reminds us how easily we drift toward both legalism and hypocrisy. On the one hand, we think that by doing good things we earn favor before God, legalism. Then on the other hand, we claim to have the gospel of grace but live just like the rest of the world, hypocrisy. We need to avoid both of these errors, which only the Word can help us do. "

― David Platt , Exalting Jesus in Galatians (Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary)
