Romans 7:7 Themes and Topics

If along with Christ you are dead from the elements of the world, why are you dogmatized as living in the world, Verse Concepts

But if Christ is in you, the body is dead so far as sin is concerned; but the Spirit is life so far as righteousness is concerned. But if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one having raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also create life in your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who dwells in you.

It could not be so. How shall we, who are dead unto sin, live any longer in it? Whether do you not know, that so many of us as were baptized unto Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death: in order that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so must we also walk in newness of life. read more.
For if we have grown together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of his resurrection: knowing this, that our old man is crucified along with him, in order that the body of sin may be destroyed, that we may no longer serve sin; for the one having died has been made free from sin. But if we died along with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him: knowing that Christ having risen from the dead dies no more; death no longer has dominion over him. For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he lives, he lives unto God. So you also thus reckon yourselves dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ.

Whether are you ignorant, O brethren, for I speak to those knowing the law, for the law hath dominion over a man for so long time as he may live? For a woman who is under her husband has been given to her husband by the law so long as he lives; but if the husband may die, she is free from the law of the husband. Then if she may be married to another man, her husband still living, she will be designated an adulteress: but if her husband may die, she is free from the law; and is no adulteress, though she is married to another man. read more.
So, my brethren, ye are dead to the law through the body of Christ, that ye should be married to another, to him who is risen from the dead, in order that we may bring forth fruit unto God. For when we were in carnality, the emotions of sins, which were through the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. But now we have been made free from the law, being dead in that in which we were held; so that we serve in the newness of the spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. Then what shall we say? is the law sin? It could not be so; but I did not know sin except through the law: for indeed I had not known lusts, unless the law said, Thou shalt not covet. But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, did work in me all concupiscence; for without law sin was dead. But I was alive at one time without law: but the commandment having come, sin revived, and I died; and the commandment, which was unto life, the same was unto death.

Therefore no flesh shall be justified by works of law: for through law there is a perfect knowledge of sin. Verse Concepts

Then what shall we say? is the law sin? It could not be so; but I did not know sin except through the law: for indeed I had not known lusts, unless the law said, Thou shalt not covet. But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, did work in me all concupiscence; for without law sin was dead. But I was alive at one time without law: but the commandment having come, sin revived, read more.
and I died; and the commandment, which was unto life, the same was unto death. For sin, taking occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it slew me. So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good. Then did that which is good become death to me? it could not be so: but sin, that it may appear sin, through the good was working out death to me, in order that sin may be exceedingly sinful through the commandment. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, having been sold under sin. For that which I do, I know not: for I do that which I do not will; but I do that which I hate. But if I do that which I do not will, I consent to the law that it is beautiful;

Then what is the law? It was added on account of the transgressions, until the seed to whom the promise was made should come; being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. A mediator is not of one; but God is one. Then was the law against the promises of God? it could not be so. For if the law was given being able to create life, truly justification would have been by law: read more.
but the scripture has shut up all things unto sin, in order that the promise through faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those who believe. But before faith came, we were kept under law, being shut up to the faith about to be revealed. Therefore the law became our schoolmaster to lead us to Christ, in order that we may be justified by faith; but faith having come, we are no longer under the schoolmaster. For you are all the sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus; for so many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is no longer Jew nor Greek, nor bond nor free, nor male and female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus. But if you belong to Christ then you are the seed of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.

But we know that the law is good, if any one may use it lawfully; Verse Concepts

But their minds were darkened. For until this day the same veil remains in the reading of the old covenant, remains, not lifted; because it is done away in Christ; but until this day when Moses is read, the veil lies upon their heart: but when they may turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one who believes. Verse Concepts

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has made thee free from the law of sin and of death. For there was an impotency of the law, in which it was weak through depravity, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of the sin of depravity and for sin, condemned sin in depravity: read more.
in order that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to depravity, but according to the spirit.

So, my brethren, ye are dead to the law through the body of Christ, that ye should be married to another, to him who is risen from the dead, in order that we may bring forth fruit unto God. For when we were in carnality, the emotions of sins, which were through the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.

Then did that which is good become death to me? it could not be so: but sin, that it may appear sin, through the good was working out death to me, in order that sin may be exceedingly sinful through the commandment. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, having been sold under sin. For that which I do, I know not: for I do that which I do not will; but I do that which I hate. But if I do that which I do not will, I consent to the law that it is beautiful; but now it is no more I that do it, but sin dwelling in me. For I know that in me, that is, in my carnal mind, there dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me, but to do that which is beautiful is not: for the good which I will I do not; but the evil which I do not will, that I do. If I do that which I do not will, it is no longer I that do it, but sin dwelling in me. Then I find a law, that, to me wishing to do that which is beautiful, that the evil is present with me: for I delight in the law of God according to the inward man; but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? Thanks be unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord: then therefore with the mind I serve the law of God; but with carnality the law of sin.

knowing that a man is not justified by works of law, but through the faith of Christ Jesus, and we have believed into Christ Jesus, in order that we may be justified by faith of Christ, and not by works of law, because by works of law no flesh shall be justified. But if seeking to be justified in Christ, we may also be found sinners, then is Christ the minister of sin? it could not be so. For if I again build the things which I have destroyed, I constitute myself a transgressor. read more.
For I through law died to law, in, order that I may live unto God. I am crucified along with Christ; and I live no longer, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness was through law, then Christ died gratuitiously.

For so many as are of works of law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who does not abide in all things which have been written in the book of the law, to do the same. But that no one is justified by law in the sight of God, is evident: because, The just shall live by faith: though the law is not of faith; but the one having done these things shall live in them. read more.
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: because it has been written; Cursed is every one having been hung on the wood: in order that the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus may come to the Gentiles; in order that we may receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

But now you are in Christ Jesus, who being at one time far off have been made nigh by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, the one having made both one, and having broken down the middle wall of partition, having destroyed the law of commandments in ordinances, through his flesh, the enmity, in order that He might create the two in himself into one new man, making peace;
