We must understand that if we do what we do NOT want to do, we agree the law is good. Nothing good lives in us, that is, in our sinful nature. We learn that if we do what we don’t want to do, it is no longer us who do it, rather, it is sin living in us that does it. For our inner being delights in God’s law. There is another law that is working in us. We know this law is found in Jesus Christ. And it is Him who frees us from the bondage of sin. In our minds, we are slaves to the law of God. Our flesh is a slave to the law of sin.

That is why we, as Christians have a war waging inside of us. We continually battle the temptation of our sinful flesh. While, in our minds, we want to be pure and serve the Living God through Jesus Christ our Lord. We know until the day we stand in the eternal presence of Jesus Christ, we will fight this war. But we can be confident, through the power of the Holy Spirit living in each one of us who believe that we will endure to the END.
