Romans7:25
25. I thank God , through Jesus Christ our Lord: So then , with the mind I my self serve the Law of God; but with the flesh, the law of sin .
Who hath already delivered me from the slavery and dominion of Sin. So that though it war against me, I still resist it, and by the strength of Christ, do frequently overcome it. 1 Cor. 15.57.
This is the conclusion the Apostle maketh of this experimental discourse.
q. d. So far as I am renewed, I yeild Obedience to the Law of God; and so far as I am unregenerate, I obey the dictates and Suggestions of the Law of Sin. Object. No man can serve two contrary Masters. A. The Apostle did not serve these two in the same part, or the same renewed faculty; nor did he do it at the same time ordinarily; and for the most part he served the Law of God, though sometimes through the power of Temptation and in-dwelling corruption, he was enforced against his Will to serve the Law of Sin.
