Romans 7:5-25
1. What struggles did Paul experience?
Paul was struggling with sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in him every kind of covetous desire, deceived him, and through the commandment put him to death, sold as a slave to sin.
He said, "Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it."
2. How did he find an answer?
In Paul's inner being he delight in God's law; but he see another law at work in the members of his body, waging war against the law of his mind and making him a prisoner of the law of sin at work within his members.
"What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!" Paul said.
