Difficult Passage - Romans 7 with Hal Hammons

45 minutes Posted May 20, 2022 at 3:21 pm.

-25 Paul describes an inner conflict with sin, one in which he wants to do right but is unable to do so. This passage may seem straight-forward enough on the surface, as we all can relate to this inward battle. But read in context with the rest of Romans, big question emerge. Why does Paul say he is enslaved to sin? What is he saying about the "law"? Is he describing his experience before or after becoming a Christian. Hal Hammons joins us for a round-table to tackle these questions.
