1 | Paul's evil practices Pre or PostJesus | Rom 7:19 | DocTrinsograce | 169370 | ||
Easy. Purpose to go the next 24 hours living in full compliance with the Word, without sin. Your success will demonstrate your freedom. Your failure will demonstrate your captivity. Repeat the experiment as many times as necessary. | ||||||
2 | Experience or Scripture? | Rom 7:19 | Morant61 | 169384 | ||
Greetings Doc! So, are we to base our doctrine upon our experience or upon God's Word? Secondly, I can state with absolute assurance that Rom. 7:14-25 does not describe my walk in Christ. The man described there ALWAYS does what he does not want to do. While there are certainly occasions upon which I fail Christ, I do not fail Him continuously. The man described there NEVER does what He wants. While there are certainly occasions upon which I have failed to do something that I wanted to do, I usually do what I want. :-) This is part of my problem with this approach to Rom. 7:14-25. First, I would never base my interpretation upon my experience. If Christ says I am no longer a slave to sin, then I am no longer a slave to sin. Secondly, the description given has been watered down to mean 'I usually don't do what I want'. But, that is not what the text actually says. Well, I have to get to bed. I have to get up in an hour and half and head to work. :-( Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
