Fall of man » All men partake of the effects of
If we say that we have no sin, we are false to ourselves and there is nothing true in us.

Verse Concepts
The pain of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
For the rule is a light, and the teaching a shining light; and the guiding words of training are the way of life.
Because by the works of the law no man is able to have righteousness in his eyes, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver. Your hands have made me, and given me form: give me wisdom, so that I may have knowledge of your teaching. Your worshippers will see me and be glad; because my hope has been in your word. read more.
I have seen, O Lord, that your decisions are right, and that in unchanging faith you have sent trouble on me.

What then is to be said? is the law sin? in no way. But I would not have had knowledge of sin but for the law: for I would not have been conscious of desire if the law had not said, You may not have a desire for what is another's. But sin, taking its chance through that which was ordered by the law, was working in me every form of desire: because without the law sin is dead. And there was a time when I was living without the law: but when the law gave its orders, sin came to life and put me to death; read more.
And I made the discovery that the law whose purpose was to give life had become a cause of death: For I was tricked and put to death by sin, which took its chance through the law. But the law is holy, and its orders are holy, upright, and good. Was then that which is good, death to me? In no way. But the purpose was that sin might be seen to be sin by working death to me through that which is good; so that through the orders of the law sin might seem much more evil. For we are conscious that the law is of the spirit; but I am of the flesh, given into the power of sin. And I have no clear knowledge of what I am doing, for that which I have a mind to do, I do not, but what I have hate for, that I do. But, if I do that which I have no mind to do, I am in agreement with the law that the law is good.

What then is the law? It was an addition made because of sin, till the coming of the seed to whom the undertaking had been given; and it was ordered through angels by the hand of a go-between. Now a go-between is not a go-between of one; but God is one. Is the law then against the words of God? in no way; because if there had been a law which was able to give life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. read more.
However, the holy Writings have put all things under sin, so that that for which God gave the undertaking, based on faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who have such faith. But before faith came, we were kept in prison under the law, waiting for the revelation of the faith which was to come. So the law has been a servant to take us to Christ, so that we might have righteousness by faith. But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a servant. Because you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For all those of you who were given baptism into Christ did put on Christ. There is no Jew or Greek, servant or free, male or female: because you are all one in Jesus Christ. And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham.
