Berean Standard Bible
“And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.”
In the middle of Romans 7, Paul describes the inner struggle of doing what he does not want. Christians differ on whether he describes his life before or after conversion, but many recognize the struggle in their own experience.
