Grace Over the Power of the Law – Romans 7

We have been set free from the law and walk in the new way of the Spirit. The law is holy, righteous, and good, but it can’t make us holy, righteous, or good. Even though we struggle in the fight against sin (which is powerful), thanks to Jesus, his grace is stronger.

The focus shifts from the power of sin (Romans 6) to the powerlessness of the law. (Romans 7)
