Romans 7:17-21
7:17 But now it is no longer me doing it, but sin that lives in me.
7:18 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I want to do the good, but I cannot do it.
7:19 For I do not do the good I want, but I do the very evil I do not want!
7:20 Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer me doing it but sin that lives in me.
7:21 So, I find the law that when I want to do good, evil is present with me.
Romans 7:23
7:23 But I see a different law in my members waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that is in my members.
Romans 7:25
7:25 Thanks be
to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then,
I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but
with my flesh I serve
the law of sin.
