"But now we have been released from the law, since we have died to what held us, so that we may serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the old letter of the law."  Romans 7:6 Romans 7 reminds us that knowing what is right does not mean we always do what is right. Paul helps us understand the purpose of the law, not as something that saves us, but as something that reveals the sin still at work in us. It is like a mirror that shows us the truth about our hearts and points us to our need for Jesus. In this chapter, Paul also gives words to the struggle so many believers feel. We want to honor God, but we still battle wrong desires, wrong thoughts, and wrong actions. As you listen, you will be reminded that spiritual struggle does not mean you are hopeless. It means you need grace. Romans 7 shows us that the answer to our deepest struggle is not found in trying harder in our own strength, but in trusting more fully in Jesus Christ. This episode will help you see the law rightly, be honest about the battle within, and rejoice in the freedom and deliverance that only Christ can give.
