If by wrong people you mean people who aren't making up stories about healing dogs? Ok. Sure. I stick with truth, not fantasy to puff myself up. Your story is absolutely absurd with no proof whatsoever.

It is the power of Jesus which I believe in, but He gets all the glory.

Yes, in Jesus name, I commanded the back to heal, and it did.

But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And he came out that very hour.
Yes Paul did to further the Gospel, as far as the dog is concerned I’d have put it out of its misery. In my opinion this is the agenda of the charismatic is to encourage the flesh to remain. I hold a totally different view.

I'm not ignoring anything. Just asking if Paul's description describes you? Do you struggle with sin like that person being described did?
We aren't talking about me. We are talking about Scripture. You claimed nobody sins after salvation. Romans 7 clearly teaches otherwise. Deal with the passage not me. [removed]

You are the one that pointed to Romans 7. So tell me, are Christians under the law?
Again, surely you know what part of Romans 7 I am talking about:

15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. 16 Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. 17 So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. 18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

James 5: Confession you SINS one to another.

Now quit playing games. Christians still sin after salvation. If you say you do not you are lying.

Do you know what is being referred to by the law of sin and death?

And again you deflect. In Romans 7, does Paul say he still sins yes or no. I only want yes or no. No commentary, just yes or no.

As a Pharisee under the law before Christ - YES

That is what he is describing in your quote of Romans 7:15-20


7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.” 8 But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead. 9 I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. 10 And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. 11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me. 12 Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.13 Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.
