New Testament Scripture Reading: Romans 7:14-25 (KJV)
(Rom 7:14 KJV) For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.(Rom 7:15 KJV) For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
(Rom 7:16 KJV) If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
(Rom 7:17 KJV) Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
(Rom 7:18 KJV) For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
(Rom 7:19 KJV) For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
(Rom 7:20 KJV) Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
(Rom 7:21 KJV) I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
(Rom 7:22 KJV) For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
(Rom 7:23 KJV) 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.
(Rom 7:24 KJV) O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
(Rom 7:25 KJV) I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
