I do not understand what I do….It is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me…For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do – this I keep on doing…I find this law at work: when I want to do good, evil is right there with me…I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin…I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.
