Legalism at one extreme (keep all the rules) and license at the other (reject any rules) are both completely wrong answers to the question of how Christians should live... Love enables us to fulfill God’s law properly without legalism... Love enables us to use our freedom properly without selfishness.
對於基督徒要如何活, 『律法主義:應當遵守一切律法』與 『自由主義:不需遵守任何律法』 都是極端、都是錯誤的。 唯有『愛』能讓我們不因著律法、 仍能活出神的心意, 唯有『愛』能讓我們自由、卻不自私。
— by Christopher J. H. Wright from his book『Cultivating the Fruit of the Spirit: Growing in Christlikeness』
