Romans 7:21

“This he repeated impressively, and as it were to stir up the most slothful from slumber: “I find then that the law,” said he, “is for me wishing to do good, since evil is present with me.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 21.

“And he declares both more plainly in what follows: “For I delight in the law of God after the inward man; but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 21, 22.

“Then follows this: “I find then the law, when I would act, to be good to me; for evil is present with me.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 19–21. The punctuation of the passage in Latin differs from that ordinarily used with us, and hence this sense results.

“The grace of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 14–25.

“So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 7–25.
