“...this aspiration is not a sign that the believer ... is a ‘legalist’”

Those who have been saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone properly and by virture of regeneration and their new nature aspire to increase in holiness, in faithfulness to Christian duty and in obedience to God’s law. (In other words, this aspiration is not a sign that the believer “doesn’t understand the Gospel,” “doesn’t understand grace,” or is a “legalist,” “moralist,” or “Pharisee.”)
