That's New Testament ethics. To put the language of justification on it,
go ahead, pursue with all your might spirit-empowered obedience moving
toward perfection at the last day because you stand right with God. And
if that's not true, there's no Christianity.

That's all I have to give to the world. No, there is a way to get right
with God that does not depend on my performances. My performances which
are necessary are the fruit of being made right with God and the
evidence that I have been made right with God.
