* Romans 7:21-25
21 I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.
22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man.
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and
bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched
man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?
25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Deuteronomy 30:14,19 | |
14 But the word is very near you, | 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you |
in your mouth | in your mouth |
and in your heart | and in your heart |
that you may do it [the Law] | (that is, the word of faith which we preach) [that we may obey God through Christ, Who in Himself fulfilled the Law and calls those who repent, righteous] |
19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you | [read Romans 7:21-25]* |
that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; | 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you wil be saved |
therefore choose life | 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made |
that both you and your descendants may live | unto salvation. |
