It is Good – Romans 7:16-18
Vs 16 – If we do what we do
not want to do, we have to agree that the law is good. The law shows us that we are sinners
incapable of doing good, even if we wanted too.
Vs 17 – A paradox of life is
that it is not us but sin living in us that causes us to do bad things. This however is not an excuse but the cause
of sinful thoughts, words and actions.
Vs 18 – There is nothing good
that dwells in us. Our sinful nature
prevents that. Man is under the delusion
that we are getting better but in reality we are not. We have a desire to do good, but it is
impossible for us to do as long as sin rules our hearts.
