Romans 7:21-25

21So I’ve discovered this truth: Evil is present with me even when I want to do what God’s standards say is good.

22I take pleasure in God’s standards in my inner being.

23However, I see a different standard ⌞at work⌟ throughout my body. It is at war with the standards my mind sets and tries to take me captive to sin’s standards which still exist throughout my body.

24What a miserable person I am! Who will rescue me from my dying body?

25I thank God that our Lord Jesus Christ rescues me! So I am obedient to God’s standards with my mind, but I am obedient to sin’s standards with my corrupt nature.
