Romans 7:13 - 7:25

RomansSteve Gregg
The meaning of Romans 7:13-7:25 is disputed, with various theories suggesting that Paul was speaking about his pre-Christian life or a state of being a Carnal Christian. However, it is possible that he was describing the inner struggle between the mind and the flesh in relation to sin that is common to normal Christians. The passage discusses the mixed desires of the spirit and flesh and the need for Christians to strive to overcome the bondage of the flesh, walking in the power of the Holy Spirit to take successful steps towards righteousness.
