Bible Note: Hi Tim This is the Part 2 so you will have to go down to read part 1 sorry Rom. 7:15 (For that which I do) (I allow not:) (for what I would,) (that do I not;) (but what I hate,) (that do I.) Rom. 7:24,25 O wretched man that I am! (who shall deliver me from the body of this death?) I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. (So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God;) (but with the flesh the law of sin.) Paul in this description is calling himself the wretched man, as the example for us in order for every man that call them selves Christian, to be able to understand the Grace of God, and the Power to be found in this Sacrifice of Jesus Christ, for us who believe. John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, (ye shall be free indeed.) 1 Cor. 6:12 (All things are lawful unto me,) (but all things are not expedient:) (all things are lawful for me,) (but I will not be brought under the power of any.) 1 Cor. 10:23 (All things are lawful for me,) (but all things are not expedient:) (all things are lawful for me,) (but all things edify not.) Eph. 2:1-6 (you say) Paul, in Galatians 5, Romans 6, and Romans 8, deals with our need to walk according to the Spirit so that we will not gratify the desires of the flesh. So, evidently, it is possible for a Christian to sin. (answer) Rom. 8:7 Because (the carnal mind is enmity against God:) (for it is not subject to the law of God,) neither indeed can be.) Gal. 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: (nevertheless I live;) (yet not I, but Christ liveth in me:) (and the life which I now live in the flesh) (I live by the faith of the Son of God,) who loved me, and gave himself for me. Gal. 5:24,25 And they that are Christ's (have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.) (If we live in the Spirit,) (let us also walk in the Spirit.) Rom. 6:11 Likewise (reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin,) (but alive unto God) through Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Cor. 15:48,49 (As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy:) and (as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.) And (as we have borne the image of the earthy,) (we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.) John 3:6 (That which is born of the flesh is flesh;) and (that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.) It is all done for us, we do not have to wait to die before we can gain this freedom, it has already been provided for us, we just have to acknowledge it now. I guess that is a lot to absorb for now.
