Romans 7:14-25 ~ The Portrait of a Struggling Christian ~ Pastor Bill Slabaugh

Romans chapter 7 paints a portrait of a struggling Christian who cannot do what he wants to do and he does the very thing that he does not want to do.  The apostle Paul shows us that this person has a problem with self.  He is self-absorbed and he would say, “It is all about me.” When we are self-absorbed and it’s all about “me,” sin gets the better of us every time. When we try to do it ourselves in our own way and in our own strength, sin wins every time. Paul shows us a better way to live in the Spirit.
