OC Bereans

Gentlemen,

Here are questions to aid your preparation for Monday night’s Bible study on Romans 7:14-25

• In this section (vv. 14-23), is Paul describing his experience before or after conversion?
• Describe how the “Law is spiritual.”  (v. 14)
• When and how was Paul (we) “sold into bondage to sin”?  (v. 14)
• By doing things that Paul would rather avoid, how does this demonstrate that the “Law is good”?  (v. 16)
• In vv. 17 and 20, is this a “cop-out”? … Is Paul refusing to take responsibility for his actions?
• In light of the overall context of chapters 6 and 7, why is the phrase “waging war” significant?  (v. 23)
• Can you identify with the cry of Paul’s heart in v. 24?

A handout for Romans 7:14-25 is available for download at the Media Drop Box on the right-side toolbar.

Dessert will be served at 7 pm … followed by our study!
