Romans 7:14

Internal Conflict With Sin

¹³ That which is good then, to me hath it become death? let it not be! but the sin, that it might appear sin, through the good, working death to me, that the sin might become exceeding sinful through the command, ¹⁴ for we have known that the law is spiritual, and I am fleshly, sold by the sin; ¹⁵ for that which I work, I do not acknowledge; for not what I will, this I practise, but what I hate, this I do.
