My Personal Journey Through Romans 7

<p>When studying Romans 7, something strange happens at verse 14. Or at least it did for me. Everything I had learned in chapter 6 about slavery to sin flew out the window, and I suddenly was okay with Paul describing himself as a slave to sin in chapter 7. That is how I used to read (and teach) this chapter. I was on the side of those who believe Paul is describing his ongoing fight against sin. I have since abandoned that understanding. In today's study, I explain why.</p>
