Needed to be Revealed – Rom 7:9-10
Vs 9 – Paul says that once he was alive apart from the law but when the commandments came sin became alive. Mankind then knew what was wrong and sin sprang to life and mankind died. Some would then argue then, why did God bring the law? Sin was always present but it needed to be revealed for the sinister thing is was, so it could be dealt with once and for all.
Vs 10 – The paradox of the law was that even though is was intended to bring life because of human weakness and sin, it actually brought death. That is a reality with any good thing. It can be perverted by sin, the devil or the world. Our responsibility is to make sure it does not corrupt us and bring us down. God has given all the tools, resources and wisdom to make the right choices. Let us do it for His praise and glory.
