Why did he make this statement?

Hello Stan, I do know it was all messed up (after the fact), but I didn't mean for it to be so. As I am new here and still working my around and trying to figure out how everything works. I have been on a number of other boards and learned to work through the codes in order to go down the line...

So are you saying Gentiles are not under any kind of a law? If so then why are they condemned to death and hell? It is true that Gentiles were not given the Mosaic Law, but the things we Gentiles are condemned for are contained in the Mosaic Law. So with that being said, I do think this applies...

Hello veteran, I appreciate your input here. My wife reminds me from time to time there are actually other books in the Bible, so she probably thinks I take it too far as well. I think one reason I spend so much time studying Romans and debating about chapter 7 in particular is because I believe...

Trekson, Sorry to hear about your plumbing. Been there done that, so no apology necessary. The biggest part of that is tearing it all out and preparing everything to go back together. It looks like you are as convinced that this is a saved man as much as I am convinced it is a lost man. I truly...

Christ came not in the nature of angels, but the seed of man. There is no sacrifice for angels, so there is no covering for their sin, so there is no way for them to be redeemed.

Hello Stan, I'm not sure if you are addressing me or Trekson or perhaps someone else. I think Trekson, but not 100% sure. Trekson is coming from a Calvinist viewpoint. Also, I'm not sure if you think Romans 7 is a saved man or an unregenerate man. What is your assessment of what I said about...

Thanks HammerStone for the advice on copy and paste from Word and such. I guess I could do that if it's going to be long. I am more on the end of the Arminian end of things, as is the old time Methodist. I am in no way Calvinist of any point. Again, Thanks!

I look foward to some good discussion with you folks. I am a SBC member, but if anyone knows anything about Southern Baptist then they know that covers a lot of theological ground and the more I study in the SBC circles the more I understand just how different it is from one congregation to the...

Hello Trekson, Thanks for the reply. Here in Romans 7 there is nothing there to think this man is trying to exercise any gifts of the Spirit to get victory over sin. This man is trapped in a struggle between the flesh and his own mind. In fact this man is also completely defeted and has accepted...

Thanks for the comments. I intend to add to it as time allows. I understand that we still struggle even after being saved, but so does the unbeliever.

I would like to take a fresh look at this, highly and sometimes hotly debated, set of verses. Before we can say Romans 7 is or is not a license to sin for the believer, as I have read through the other thread, we must first know if this man is born again or not in this chapter. I have studied...
