Roman 7:3 to 7:10
We have a sin nature that we fight against the wrong way - by going back under the Law or we make up our own laws. But those never help. Learn how to deal with the sin nature aside from the Law.

The cross is our power over the sin nature and the activities of sin that so easily beset us.
We learn not to sin so that grace may about. We lean the mechanics of our salvation in Christ.
Paul explains how we are born sinners and in death. But Christ's work of the cross and God's grace far exceeds Original Sin and its affects.
We see the importance of faith in our salvation. God is a God of faith.
Paul shows us that God is a holy God that must righteously judge sin even on His own Son as our substitute so that we may be justified - declared righteous.
Paul explains that no man, no one ever, is righteous by God's standard. And no man can be justified by the Law.
Paul makes the case in Romans 2 that the religious Jew is just as lost as the heathen sinner described in chapter 1. Being religious does not profit or save; faith alone saves.
Paul lays out the argument why men are sinners and are under God's wrath. Our society is the evidence of God's wrath.
We begin our study on the book of Romans verse-by-verse. Paul introduces us to the need for salvation in Christ Jesus which is the power of God.
