Thematic Bible: By its strictness stirs up
Thematic Bible
Sin » The law » By its strictness stirs up
For sin, finding occasion, through the commandment deceived me, and through it killed me.
When we were in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were through the law, worked in our members to bring forth fruit to death.
But sin, finding occasion, worked out in me through the commandment all manner of coveting. Apart from the law sin is dead.
