Romans 7:13-25 - Internal Conflict With Sin

¹³ Was then that which is good made death to me? God forbid: But sin: so that it appeared sin, working death in me by that which is good: so that sin might by the commandment become exceeding sinful. ¹⁴ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin. ¹⁵ For that which I do I approve not; for what I would, I do not, but what I hate, that I do. ¹⁶ If then I do what I would not, I consent to the law, that it is good. ¹⁷ Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. ¹⁸ For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good, I find not. ¹⁹ For the good that I would, I do not; but the evil which I would not, that I do. ²⁰ Now, if I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. ²¹ I find then a law, that when I would do good, evil is present with me. ²² For I delight in the law of God, after the inward man. ²³ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and captivating me to the law of sin, which is in my members. ²⁴ Wretched man that I am! ²⁵ Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I myself with my mind serve the law of God, but with my flesh the law of sin.
