Romans 7:17

²⁰But if what I don’t desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.

⁸Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ ⁹and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith,

¹⁸For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.

⁵Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously”? ⁶But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

¹²For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.

⁷“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, whose sins are covered. ⁸Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin.”

²³but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
