The Problem of the Sin that Lives in Us
13 Now, did something good bring me death? Of course not! But in order that sin might be recognized as being sin, it used something good to cause my death, so that through the rule, sin might become more exposed as being[a] sinful than ever before. 14 For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am merely human,[b] sold as a slave to sin.[c]
