That's an interesting opinion; but I'll just stick with scripture.

(CLV) Ro 7:7
What, then, shall we |declare? That the law is sin? May it not be coming to that! But sin I knew not except through law. For besides, I had not been aware of coveting except the law said, "You shall not be coveting."
First, you completely dodged my argument - other readers will see this.

Second, if you are going to "stick with scripture", you need to know Scripture, know context, and obey basic logic: Paul here is talking about the Law of Moses, given to Israel and Israel alone - the fact that the Israelite may have learned about sin from the Law of Moses does not logically mean that is the only way for a person to learn about sin.

Knowledge of sin comes through the law of Moses.
For the Israelite, yes. But it is simply an error of reasoning to argue thus:

- The Israelite gains knowledge of sin through the Law of Moses;
- THEREFORE, all people gain knowledge of sin this way and the Law of Moses must be eternal.

Knowledge of sin for all humans comes through the law of God & Moses.

You cant teach someone what sin is without the law of God.

I'm not interested in arguments. I prefer truth

Yahshua was commissioned only for Israel.

YHWH's covenant is with Israel.

There are some who believe that if they had been in the times of Noah; that they could have been saved if they had built their own ark.

Another obvious dodge.

Romans is written to gentiles -- see Romans 11.

Romans 5 through 8 are basic Bible doctrine that applies to all mankind.

Romans 7 mentions things like "do not covet" -- and no bible text says that it is only a sin for Jews to covet but it is just fine for gentiles

Bible details matter.
