What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, has found?

And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

You will say then unto me, Why does he yet find fault? For who has resisted his will?

But Isaiah is very bold, and says, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
