Paul's Spiritual Autobiogrpahy Pt 2 | Rom. 7:14-25 | J. Allen Mashburn

This is one of the easiest passages in the Bible for me to identify with. It tells the absolute truth about the life of the believer!

Some commentators feel that Paul is describing the life of a carnal Christian. That he is telling us how saved men who refuse to yield to the Spirit of God live their lives. Yet, I read these verses and to me they are intensely personal. It is as if Paul rips the covers back from his life and gives us an intimate portrait of himself and of how he struggles through life.

No, this isn't a description of a carnal believer! This is a portrait of a maturing saint! It is the way life is for the child of God; described with no punches pulled and no holds barred. This is how life was for Paul.
