Subject: How do I forgive adultry if it continues |
Bible Note: TJS :: A conflict not unlike that of which you speak and with which believers wrestle day by day was by no means foreign to the apostle Paul. He discusses it in Romans 7. Verses 15 through 25 present a profound insight into the spiritual and psychological struggles within the believer between two natures, the old sin nature and the divine nature received at the point of regeneration. The passage shows that self-effort cannot achieve holiness through keeping of the law or win the struggle against indwelling sin. Actually, one should read and study Paul's argument all the way from the beginning of Romans 6 through Romans 8 in order to attain a more lucid understanding of it. --Hank |
