Romans 7:9-14

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Romans 7:9-14

9Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
11For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
12So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
13Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
— Romans 7:9-14
