Romans 7:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 7:6

4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become ^adead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should ^bbear fruit to God.

5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law ^awere at work in our members ^bto bear fruit to death.

6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve ^ain the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.

Sin’s Advantage in the Law

7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, ^aI would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, ^b“You shall not covet.”

8 But ^asin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For ^bapart from the law sin was dead.
