At War with Our Sin

Mar 17, 2013    Pastor Nick Nye    Romans 7:14-25

It's said that Romans 7 is one of the easiest chapters to believe, but one of the hardest to enjoy. Why is that? Paul identifies with the ongoing war we have with our sin, describing it as a "body of death" chained to us. We are wretched people who, despite a desire to do what is right, are wholly incapable of obedience to the God. But there is hope, thanks be to Christ Jesus, and we are not left in despair because whether we are having our best day or our worst, because God's satisfaction with us and love for us isn't rooted in our progress, but in Jesus.
