As we continue on in Romans 7, the Apostle Paul shows us that sin conducts a military operation against us in life—not a skirmish or a one-time battle, but a long-term, lifelong campaign. In this episode, Paul demonstrates by his own testimony that he and every believer are in a losing conflict against sin and the sin nature. Our ultimate victory in this war, however, can never come from the energy of our own flesh, but only, as Romans 8 begins, by the power that comes from walking in the Spirit.
